Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
2. Prepare the Chocolate Mixture:
In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and butter. Heat over medium heat until the butter melts. Remove from heat.
3. Melt Chocolate:
Add the milk chocolate to the warm milk and butter mixture. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
4. Add Vanilla:
Stir in the vanilla extract. Set aside to cool slightly.
5. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, 1/4 cup of the brown sugar, and dry cocoa powder. Mix until well incorporated.
6. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Pour the slightly cooled chocolate mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add the egg and stir until you have a smooth batter.
7. Prepare the Pudding:
Pour the batter into a greased baking dish.
8. Make the Sauce:
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of brown sugar evenly over the batter in the baking dish. Carefully pour 1 cup (240ml) of boiling water over the top.
9. Bake:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the pudding is set on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean but with moist crumbs.
10. Serve:
Let the pudding cool for a few minutes before serving. Scoop out portions, making sure to get some of the sauce from the bottom of the dish. Enjoy your Baileys self-saucing pudding warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
