Time 1h25m

Yield Serves 8-10

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

3 strong black teabags
300g dried mixed fruit
butter, for the tin
180g dark brown soft sugar
4-5 balls of stem ginger, roughly chopped
100g dark chocolate, chopped
2 tsp marmalade
2 drops of orange essence, or use 1 orange, zested
1 medium egg, beaten
230g self-raising flour
½ tsp mixed spice
1 tsp ground cinnamon
pinch of ground ginger
50g dark chocolate
2 oranges (optional)

Steps:

Drop the teabags into a heatproof jug, pour over 350ml boiling water from the kettle and leave to brew for 5 mins. Tip the dried fruit into a large heatproof bowl and pour over the hot tea. Cover and soak overnight.
Heat the oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3. Butter a 2lb loaf tin and line with baking parchment. Scatter the sugar over the soaked fruit and stir to dissolve. Add the ginger, chocolate, marmalade, orange essence, egg, flour, a pinch of salt and all the spices, then mix to a thick batter.
Scrape into the tin and bake for 1 hr 15 mins. Leave in the tin for 10 mins, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool.
To decorate, melt the chocolate in short bursts in the microwave, or in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water. If you're making the dried peel, peel the oranges and cut the peel into strips. Press dry with a kitchen towel, then scatter over a baking tray and bake at 90C or your oven's lowest setting for 3 hrs, checking every 45 mins. Leave to cool. Drizzle the chocolate over the loaf and scatter with the peel.

Tips:

Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will be. Look for chocolate that is at least 70% cacao.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to set.
