If you love chocolate and popcorn then this is the tray bake for you! I’ve been keeping myself busy by making brownies and muffins for friends and sending them in the post- which send really nicely- but it was my friends b-day and i wanted something special i could also send, and she loves popcorn- so what better than a tray bake chocolate cake covered in popcorn and marshmallows!

- 1 tsp baking powder
For the icing-
- 150g Soft butter
- 350g icing sugar
- 60g cocoa powder

Method-
- Set the oven to 180 degrees and butter the baking tray.
