This recipe combines the warm, gooey goodness of caramel with the nutty crunch of pecans, all made conveniently in the microwave.

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients: First, gather all your ingredients and ensure you have them measured correctly. Melt the butter and allow it to cool slightly.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of self-raising flour and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Stir these ingredients together until they are evenly mixed.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, and egg until they are fully combined.
4. Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until you have a smooth batter. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Add Pecans: Fold in the chopped pecans gently, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Prepare for Cooking: Place the batter into a microwave-safe dish or individual microwave-safe ramekins, filling them about 3/4 full.
7. Create Caramel Topping: Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of brown sugar evenly over the top of the batter. Carefully pour 1 cup of boiling water over the brown sugar. This will help create the self-saucing caramel effect during cooking.
8. Microwave Cooking: Microwave the pudding on high for about 5-7 minutes. Cooking times may vary depending on your microwave's power. The pudding should rise, and the top should feel set while the bottom will be saucy.
9. Check for Doneness: Insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the pudding. If it comes out mostly clean (a few crumbs are okay), the pudding is done. The sauce should be bubbling around the edges.
10. Cool Slightly: Allow the pudding to cool for a couple of minutes in the microwave before serving. This helps the sauce thicken slightly.
11. Serve: Spoon the pudding into bowls, making sure to include some of the delicious caramel sauce in each serving. Enjoy your warm, gooey microwave caramel self-saucing pudding!

Tips:

- Ensure the butter is fully melted before mixing it with the other ingredients to achieve a smooth batter.

- Use room temperature ingredients, such as the egg and milk, to help the batter combine more evenly.

- Chop the pecans into smaller pieces to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the pudding.

- Check the pudding frequently while it cooks in the microwave to prevent overcooking; microwaves vary in power, so adjust cooking time as needed.

- Let the pudding sit for a minute or two after cooking to allow the sauce to thicken and the flavors to meld.
