Looks lush doesn't it? Let me tell you.....it is! ;) My other half even said it was the sort of pudding you could serve in a restaurant- high praise indeed!!!
So without further ado, let me tell you how to make it for yourself.....
For the chocolate pudding (to serve four) you will need:
50g unsalted butter
50g caster sugar
2 eggs
90g SR flour
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
What to do:
1. Cream the butter and sugar together, then add the eggs until the mixture is light and fluffy.
2. Sieve the flour into the bowl, add the cocoa powder, and beat in until fully combined.
3. Pour the mixture into 4 buttered bowls or ramekins.
4. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until risen.
5. Tip out of the moulds and serve with toffee sauce and vanilla ice cream.
***IMPROVISATION ALERT*** I don't have ramekins, or four suitable bowls to use for this recipe, so I used mugs. Yes that's right mugs that you'd normally have your cuppa in. Worked a treat. You can grease the inside with butter or, like I did, spray Fry-Lite, or Cake Release into them before adding the raw mixture. The cakes just tipped out when it was time to serve them :)
For the toffee sauce you will need:
170g butter
260g soft light brown sugar
2 tablespoons water
1/4 teaspoon salt
180ml evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
What to do:
1. Put the butter, sugar, water and salt in a saucepan, over a medium heat and stir until melted and combined.
2. Bring to the boil for 3-5 minutes until the toffee sauce thickens to the desired consistency.
3. Remove from the heat and stir in evaporated milk and vanilla.
Easy as that!!
So now you've decided that it's easy enough to make, we'll have another picture of it to convince you to make it sooner rather than later....
Let me know if you make it and what you think of it!
