This is the cake I made with Mum's scales. It's in Imperial measures, a nice simple recipe that requires no special or expensive ingredients.
4 +1/2 oz. sugar
2 oz. butter
1 tablespoon honey
1 cup flour
1 tablespoon cocoa
3/4 cup of milk
1/2 teaspoon bi-carb. of soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
Cream butter and sugar, add egg, honey and cocoa. Beat well, mix flour and baking powder together and add to butter, sugar etc. Lastly add milk with the soda added.
Bake middle of the oven at 350F for 30 minutes approx. (I've found this cooks best in a ring tin.). Ice with chocolate icing when cool. Yum.
Next time I might add a little orange peel and ice with choc/orange juice icing for a honey jaffa cake.
