A tasty dessert that kids big and small will love

INGREDIENTS

1 x Basic Butter
Cake Mix (see below)

8 large oranges

1/3 cup chopped walnuts

1/3 cup honey

Aluminium foil

Icing sugar (optional)  

Basic Butter Cake Mix:

185g soft butter or margarine

1 cup castor sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

3 large eggs

2 cups self-raising flour

¼ cup of milk

METHOD

1. Beat or whisk together the butter, sugar and vanilla until creamy (in a large bowl).
2. Beat the eggs in one at a time, making sure each one is completely mixed in before adding the next.
3. Mix the honey into the cake mix and add the walnuts after sifting in the flour and milk alternately, a third at a time, lightly stir in.
4. Cut oranges in half, scoop out the flesh and keep the empty orange skin halves.
5.  Place each orange half on a large square of aluminium foil and spoon in the mix until they are three-quarters full.
6.  Pull the foil up around the orange halves and twist loosely at the top to seal; allow a little room around the top of the cup for the mixture to rise.
7.  Place the foil parcels in the coals or on a trivet in your camp oven (medium coals), making sure they sit upright; check them after 10 minutes.
8. Open the foil and eat straight out of the cup with a spoon and a dob of butter.
