Triple chocolate block pudding

4 Method Steps

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan forced. Lightly grease a 6cm deep, 20 x 30cm baking dish. Place the milk, butter and vanilla in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave on High for 1-2 minutes or until the butter melts. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

Use a balloon whisk to whisk the flour, brown sugar and cocoa into the cooled butter mixture. Add the egg and whisk gently until well combined. Transfer to the prepared dish. Place the dish on a baking tray.

Step 3

For the sauce, combine the sugar, cocoa powder and boiling water in a heatproof jug. Stir to combine.

Step 4

Pour sauce over the back of a large metal spoon, over the batter. Bake for 25 minutes. Gently place the chocolate blocks on top of the pudding to cover it. Bake for a further 1-2 minutes or until the chocolate melts slightly. Serve with cream or ice-cream, if you like.
