Chocolate and Cinnamon Puddle Puddings

Ingredients (serves 6)

  • 150g unsalted butter, melted, cooled
  • 200g caster sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 150g (1 cup) self-raising fl our
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 20g Dutch cocoa
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 75g dark chocolate, chopped
  • Double cream, to serve
  • Sauce

  • 75g (1/3 cup) brown sugar
  • 75g (1/3 cup) caster sugar
  • 30g Dutch cocoa
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) Cognac, brandy or nut-flavoured liqueur

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180ËšC. For puddings, process all ingredients, except chocolate, in a food processor until just smooth, then stir in chocolate. Spoon into a greased, shallow 27cm round 7-cup capacity baking dish, or 6 x 1-cup capacity dishes.
  2. For sauce, combine sugars and cocoa in a bowl, then sift over the top of the pudding. Combine Cognac and 500ml (2 cups) boiling water, and pour evenly over the back of a spoon over sugar mixture. Bake large pudding for 40 minutes (or individual puddings for 20 minutes) until the top is puffed.
  3. Serve immediately with spoonfuls of double cream.
