This dessert is best enjoyed warm, but you can also prepare it ahead of time. Simply bake the sponge, pour over the chocolate fudge sauce, and let it set overnight for a rich, fudgy finish.

a) Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4. Grease or line a large rectangular ceramic baking dish (around 33x23 cm).

b) In a large bowl combine the cake mix, eggs, water and vegetable oil (see pantry for amounts) Gently stir until fully incorporated, 2-3 mins.

c) Pour the cake mixture into your baking dish.

d) When the oven is hot, pop the baking dish onto the middle shelf of your oven until bake until risen and cooked through, 40-45 mins or until a rounded knife inserted in the centre comes out clean.

a) Meanwhile, just before serving, boil a half-filled kettle. Heat a small saucepan on medium-low heat. 

b) When hot, add in the chocolate chips, creme fraiche, boiled water (see pantry for amount). 

c) Gently stir until the chocolate has melted and combined into a thick sauce, 3-4 mins. 

d) Stir in the butter (see pantry for amount) and a pinch of salt until combined then remove from the heat.

a) Once baked, remove the sponge from the oven and poke holes all over the top of the cake using a fork or knife.
