Chocolate self-saucing pudding is a classic dessert that delivers a comforting and indulgent chocolate experience. This recipe combines the richness of dark chocolate with a light, airy pudding that creates its own luscious sauce. Perfect for any chocolate lover, it's a crowd-pleaser that's surprisingly easy to make.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium-sized ovenproof dish or pudding dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and 1/2 cup of the brown sugar. Mix well until the sugar starts to dissolve.
- Add the egg and whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Gradually pour in the milk while continuing to whisk, ensuring a smooth mixture.
- Sift the self-raising flour into the bowl. Gently fold the flour into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few small lumps.
- Fold in the chopped dark chocolate pieces, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared ovenproof dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of brown sugar evenly over the top of the batter.
- Pour 1 1/4 cups (300ml) of boiling water over the entire mixture. Do not stir; the water will create a delicious sauce as the pudding bakes.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is set and a skewer inserted into the cake part comes out clean. The pudding should be gooey and saucy underneath.
Let the pudding cool for a few minutes before serving. Spoon into bowls, ensuring each serving has plenty of the rich chocolate sauce from the bottom.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or a drizzle of cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Tips:
- Ensure the butter is melted but not hot when mixing with other ingredients to avoid cooking the egg.
- Sift the self-raising flour to keep the pudding light and airy.
- Use high-quality dark chocolate for the most intense chocolate flavor.
- Check the pudding's doneness by ensuring the cake part is firm, but remember the bottom should be saucy.
- Serve immediately for the best experience, as the sauce thickens as it cools.
Now that your chocolate self-saucing pudding is ready, all that's left to do is dig in and enjoy the delectable blend of cake and sauce. Whether served on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, this dessert is sure to impress at any gathering.
