- Line up on the baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes. Test to see if they're done by inserting a skewer into the middle, if no raw clumps come out then they're ready. Once they've cooled, cover with cling film whilst slightly warm and chill. Then you're done.
- Brush with rum or orange liqueur after baking, or mix chocolate chips in before baking. You can try adding your own little additions to see what you like. If you can leave them overnight for a moister cake.
