300g/11oz plain flour

• Grease a medium baking tray.

together the flour and bicarbonate of soda, then beat into the creamed
mixture. Stir in the walnuts and chocolate. Wrap the mixture in cling

and bake in the oven for 10–12 minutes. Remove from the oven, slide
off the tray using a spatula and cool on a wire rack.
