"Alongside crunchy chocolate, Jaffa cookies were my favourite while I was growing up: a perfect balance of orange, biscuits and chocolate. My sister and I would always argue about whose turn it was to go to the shop across the street to buy some more. And when we had purchased the quantity desired, the next step was to smuggle the bag to our room so the parents would not know why we were skipping our dinners. We never mentioned it and it has remained that way, as this is one of those stories you can share only with your co-conspirator. Just like mischief-making at school: no-one understands the point except the group involved. We were inspired by Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer's adventures, they suited our time and place perfectly, fitted our sense of adventure. I made this icebox cake from scratch but you can use ready-made orange jam (melt and spread it on the cookies while still warm to get an even surface) and ready-made chocolate pudding as well, to speed the process up. Here I give my detailed recipe from scratch. Please note, it is for a small batch (dish dimensions: 8 x 5.5 x 2 inches approx.)"
