Serves

 Makes 12 slices 

 



Total Time

 55 Minutes 

 



 

 

Ingredients

    250g of plain flour  

   2 tsp of baking powder  

   1 tsp of bicarbonate of soda  

   1 tsp of cinnamon  

   100g of butter  

   2 medium free range eggs  

   150g of natural yogurt  

   400g of rhubarb, cut into 2cm lengths  

   50g of white chocolate chunks  

   50g of macadamia nuts, roughly chopped  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Preheat the oven to 180ºC, gas mark 4. Sift 200g of the flour with the baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and the cinnamon into a large mixing bowl. Rub in 75g of the butter until the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs and stir in 100g of the sugar. Beat the eggs with the yogurt then beat into the dry ingredients to make a soft mixture.



 Step 2 

Spoon the cake mixture into a buttered and base-lined baking tin, about 28x18x4cm, and smooth the surface. Top with the rhubarb. Rub the remaining butter and flour together and stir in the rest of the sugar. Add the chopped macadamia nuts and the white chocolate chunks. Scatter over the rhubarb.



 Step 3 

Bake for 35-40 minutes until well risen and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Turn onto a wire rack to cool. Serve warm in slices with Waitrose Seriously Creamy Madagascan Vanilla Ice Cream or leave to cool and store in an airtight container.
