Step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Melt the butter in a heatproof bowl over a pan of just simmering water. Once melted, add the chocolate and mix until the chocolate has just melted. Remove from the heat and allow to cool a little.

Step 2
Beat the eggs and sugar together with an electric whisk in a large bowl until light and fluffy, then fold in the cocoa and almonds, followed by the melted butter and chocolate mix.

Pour into a buttered and baking-paper lined 20cm square and 6cm deep baking tin. Dollop on then swirl in spoonfuls of the peanut butter, marbling it into the batter.
