\nCake
\n1\/4 cup brown sugar
\n2\/3 cup self-rising flour
\n3 tablespoons extra dark cocoa powder
\n1\/2 cup chocolate chips, melted
\n2 tablespoons butter, melted
\n1\/3 cup milk, not too cold
\n1 egg, room temperature, beaten
\n1 teaspon salt
\n1 punnet raspberries, crushed and sprinkled with a bit of sugar<\/p>\n
\n1 tablespoon brown sugar
\n1 tablespoon white sugar
\n1 tablespoon cocoa powder
\n1 cup boiling water<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>1. Heat oven to 350 F. Grease or butter a cake pan.
\n2. Sift together the brown sugar, flour, salt, and cocoa powder.
\n3. Combine the melted butter and chocolate. Once it has cooled down a bit, add the beaten egg, raspberries, and milk. Make sure the butter and chocolate aren\u2019t too hot, or the milk isn\u2019t too cold (otherwise, you could end up with chunks!).
\n4. Thoroughly combine wet and dry ingredients. Then evenly spread the batter into the prepared pan.
\n5. Sprinkle your extra sugars and cocoa over the batter, and then slowly and evenly pour the boiling water over. It will look messy, but don\u2019t worry — it’ll sort itself out!
\n6. Pop the batter into the oven and bake for 35 minutes.
\n7. Serve hot or with ice cream on top.<\/p>\n
