Orange Jaffa Cake (Gluten Free)

This is a Nigella Lawson recipe I got from the web. I made it for a morning tea at KISA's work as one of the staff needs gluten free treats. It was very yummy and quite a hit.

2 thin skinned oranges
6 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon bicarb soda
200g ground almonds
250g caster sugar (i used regular sugar, we didn't die)
50g cocoa
Cover the washed oranges with cold water bring to boil and boil for 2 hours. Cool. Cut in half and remove the seeds. Toss in a food processor and process to mush. Add everything else and process till well mixed. Pour into a springform tin that has been greased and lined on the base with baking paper. Bake for 1 hour in a pre heated 180 degree oven. Watch for burning. Turn out when cold onto plate. Sprinkle liberally with icing sugar before serving with a dollop of thick cream. And maybe raspberries...
