Heavenly chocolate puddings

How to make Heavenly chocolate puddings recipe

Serves 4

Preparation time 10 minutes, Cooking time 10 minutes

Ingredients:
100 g (3½ oz) milk chocolate, broken up
50 g (2 oz) unsalted butter
40 g (1½ oz) cocoa powder
75 g (3 oz) golden caster sugar
2 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons single cream
icing sugar, for dusting

Method:
Melt the chocolate and butter in a large mixing bowl placed over a pan of barely simmering water, making sure the surface of the water does not touch the bowl.

Remove from the heat, add the cocoa powder, 50 g (2 oz) of the sugar, the egg yolks, vanilla extract and cream and beat the mixture to a smooth paste.

Whisk the egg whites in a clean bowl until peaking and gradually whisk in the remaining sugar. Use a large metal spoon to fold a quarter of the meringue into the chocolate mixture to lighten it, then fold in the remainder.

Spoon the mixture into 4 small ramekin dishes or similar-sized ovenproof dishes.

Bake in a preheated oven, 160°C (325°F), Gas Mark 3, for 8–10 minutes or until a very thin crust has formed over the surface. Dust with icing sugar and serve immediately.

For boozy chocolate puddings, stir 2 tablespoons brandy, rum or orange liqueur into the mixture with the cream. Continue as above.
