Stir until combined and remove from heat.
* Step 5
Add flour, eggs, sugar & milk to mixture- whisk until smooth before folding in nuts.
* Step 6
Pour mixture into prepared tin, smooth the surface and place into oven for 55 minutes (or until it passes the skewer test) then remove from oven.
* Step 7
Allow cake 5 minutes in cake tin before turning out onto a wire rack to cool. Now you can work on your rich chocolate icing.
