Notes

  • TIPS
  • TIPS
  • You might need to use a spoon or spatula to spread out the pudding mixture in the bottom of the baking dish.
  • When pouring the boiling water over the pudding mixture, you can use the back of a spoon to break the pour.
  • You'll know it's cooked when the top of the cake is a little crusty and springs back when you touch it gently.
  • SERVING
  • SERVING
  • It's great by itself and even better with ice cream and strawberries.
  • Use a large spoon to scoop out the pudding, making sure everyone gets their fair share of the warm chocolate sauce.
  • You could also serve this pudding with a generous dollop of freshly whipped cream, sprinkled with chocolate shavings, nuts of coconut or dusted with icing sugar (powdered sugar).
  • You could also substitute the strawberries for a different fruit. Banana, raspberries and cherries also pair well with chocolate.
  • FAQs
  • FAQs
  • Q. Can this Chocolate Self Saucing Pudding be re-heated?
  • Yes. It is best re-heated in the microwave to ensure that gooey sauce becomes gooey again.
  • Q. What type of cocoa works best?
  • I use regular (or natural) cocoa powder which is the most common type of cocoa powder and widely available in stores. It's the cheapest option and is more commonly used in recipes.
  • However, you could also use Dutch process cocoa powder, which has a smoother and more mellow flavour.
