  • Line a 33cm x23cm tin with baking parchment and preheat oven to 160°C.
  • For the topping: Put the chopped  chocolate in a heat- resistant bowl.  Heat the cream in a saucepan over a medium heat until just steaming. 
  • Pour over the chocolate and mix until smooth.

  • For the bake: whisk the margarine, sugars and pinch of salt in a mixer for about 5 minutes or until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time. Mix in the ground almonds, flour, yoghurt, and almond essence (if using).
  • Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and smooth the surface with a spatula or the back of a spoon. 
  • Bake for 30 minutes or until golden, and firm to touch.  Leave in the tin to cool completely.
  • When cooled, spread the topping evenly over the base, and sprinkle with chopped honeycomb and flaked toasted almonds.
