Chocolate Cinnamon Crumb Squares

Wouldn't rave about these but they do stick to yer ribs and they are chocolaty. Need some cream to go with them. Frankly can't taste the cinnamon.

For the crumble topping 

• 50g plain flour 
• 1 tbsp cocoa powder 
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon 
• 50g light muscovado sugar 
• 50g butter

For the cake 

• 200g plain chocolate 
• 175g softened butter 
• 200g light muscovado sugar 
• 3 eggs 
• 175g self-raising flour 

Make the crumble first and set aside. Make the cake (cream butter and sugar, melt chocolate, add, etc.). Pour into 20cm square tin, top with crumble, bake at 150 for 40 mins, until skewer comes out clean. Cool in tin for 10 mins then dust over with icing sugar and cut into squares.

Cinnamon Teacake

This originally came in a cake tin but I baked it shallow in a swiss roll tin and cut up into thin half-biscuit half-cake slices. Went down well with a side of cream and served with hot chocolate.

Whisk 130g butter with 2 eggs, 1 cup sugar and plenty of vanilla essence. Stir in 2 cups of self-raising flour (or equivalent) and 2/3 cups of milk, half at a time. Bake at 180. Turn out upside down. Melt butter and brush over the top, sprinkle all over with cinnamon sugar. Cut up into squares.

Apparently they're 'all the taste of a doughnut, in the convenience of a square'.

Cinnamon Doughnut Baby cakes

More like cupcakes, really. 250g flour, 1.5 tsp baking powder, 0.5 tsp salt, 0.5 tsp cinnamon, mix. Mix separately 80g melted butter, 175 caster sugar, 1 egg and 180 ml milk. Combine, Spoon into little patty pans and bake. When they come out lather them over the top with melted butter and sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the top. They actually do taste like doughnuts.
