So here is the recipe!

Ingredients

Cake:

200 g butter

250 g sugar (I used 100 g cane sugar and 150 g normal sugar)

150 g flour

1 tsp baking powder

3 eggs
100-150 grams chocolate chips

Orange Sirup:
2 oranges
2 dl sugar

Cake Directions:

1. First, soften the butter and whisk in the sugar with an electric hand mixer, continue to whisk while adding in the eggs one by one. 
2. Then, in a separate bowl mix the flour and baking powder together. 
3. Next, mix the flour mixture into the batter little by little. 
4. After that, stir in 100-150 grams of chocolate chips.
5. Then, pour the cake batter into a spring form pan that's lined with parchment paper.
6. Bake at 190-200c for about an hour. 

Orange Sirup Directions:

Orange Sirup

1. First, wash the oranges. Then, grate the peel (only the orange part).
2. Next, juice the oranges. Then, sift the juice, and discard the pulp. 
3. Put the sugar, orange juice and peel in a pot and bring it to a slow boil (be careful and watch over it!). 
4. Then, when it's reduced to between 3/4 and 1/2 of the original content, and the sirup has become thicker, remove from heat.

Final Step! When the cake comes out of the oven, drizzle the sirup over it so it soaks into the cake. That is it. Hope you enjoy it. :o)
