SERVING SUGGESTIONS
You can substitute the chocolate chips for other ingredients, such as;
– frozen blueberries (adding them frozen prevents them from sinking in the mixture)
– white chocolate and raspberries

– Dark chocolate chips and orange zest
…. or simply leave out the chocolate chips and decorate simple sponge cakes with icing and sprinkles.
