Saucy Chocolate Pudding

Saucy Chocolate Pudding

Super quick and easy dessert! You don’t need a mixer and using ingredients you probably already have in your pantry. I love this pudding with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup self-rising flour*
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 80g butter, melted, cooled
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • Vanilla Ice Cream or whipped cream, to serve

Sauce

  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, sifted
  • 1 1/4 cups boiling water

Method

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease an 8-cup (2 litre) capacity ovenproof baking dish.

Sift flour and cocoa into a large bowl. Stir in sugar.

Combine butter, milk and egg in a jug. Slowly add to flour mixture, whisking until well combined and smooth. Spoon into baking dish. Smooth the top.

Make the sauce: Sprinkle combined sugar and cocoa over pudding.

Slowly pour boiling water over the back of a large metal spoon to cover pudding. Place dish onto a baking tray. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until pudding bounces back when pressed gently in centre. Serve hot with cream or vanilla ice cream.

 

*Helpful Hint: If you don’t have self-raising flour in your pantry, just make your own. No need to run out to the grocery store.
