Full question

I only found out I'd undercooked my Christmas cake after had iced it! Is there any way I can use it?

Our answer

If you have undercooked Christmas cake then you should cut off and discard the undercooked centre. The exterior pieces may be fine to eat or you could consider using the cooked parts of the cake to make Nigella's Christmas Puddini bonbons, using the cake instead of leftover Christmas pudding.

The bonbons are also a good way of using up leftover Christmas pudding. The recipe can be found on Nigella's website and in her book Christmas.
