You can easily make giant Jaffa Cakes with only three ingredients

The eternal Jaffa Cake debate is whether they qualify as biscuits or cake.

But surely one thing we can all agree on is that they're just not big enough.

If you too would like your Jaffa Cakes to be three times the size, there's an easy way to create your own at home.

The brilliant trick was shared on TikTok and has already amassed more than 200,000 views and almost 20,000 likes.

It's been labelled 'genius' by social media users, who have rushed to make their own.

The best part is, they require only three ingredients and absolutely no baking (or that pesky flour that's still missing from every supermarket).

They're also vegetarian, which many types of the cakes/biscuits aren't, due to the addition of gelatine in that orange jelly layer.

To make your giant Jaffa Cakes, all you'll need is some ready-made Scotch pancakes - any brand will do - some marmalade, and some dark chocolate.

Then you simply layer up the pancakes with marmalade, and top with melted dark chocolate.

Leave them to set (you can pop them in the fridge to speed things up) and enjoy!

It's one of many lazy baking hacks we've found during the UK's ongoing lockdown.

Others have included ridiculously simple three-ingredient peanut butter cookies, and easy flourless pancakes.

Warburtons also recently shared its secret family recipe for its famous crumpets.
