Spoon the cake mixture into a buttered and base-lined baking tin, about 28x18x4cm, and smooth the surface. Top with the rhubarb. Rub the remaining butter and flour together and stir in the rest of the sugar. Add the chopped macadamia nuts and the white chocolate chunks. Scatter over the rhubarb. 3. Bake for 35-40 minutes until well risen and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Turn onto a wire rack to cool.

CommentsYou can replace the white chocolate with crystallised stem ginger or use grated orange zest instead of cinnamon for a different flavour. Freeze in an airtight container for up to three months.Try this with a delicious dessert wine that has an almost perfect balance of fruity sweetness and refreshment: Domaine des Forges Chaume, Loire, France.
