Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Unsalted butter (plus extra for greasing)
- 100 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
- 100 grams Caster sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 50 grams Plain flour
- 1 tablespoon Cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and grease four individual ramekins or pudding molds with butter, ensuring you coat them thoroughly.
Dust the greased ramekins with cocoa powder, tipping out any excess, to help the puddings release easily after baking.
In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of gently simmering water, melt the butter and dark chocolate together. Stir occasionally until smooth. Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the caster sugar, eggs, and egg yolks together until the mixture is light, fluffy, and pale in color.
Gently fold the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture, being careful not to deflate it.
Sift the plain flour over the chocolate mixture and gently fold it in until combined and no lumps remain.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared ramekins, filling each about three-quarters full.
Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 9-10 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center should remain soft and slightly wobbly.
Once baked, remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool for 1 minute. Run a knife around the edge of each pudding to loosen it, then carefully invert onto serving plates.
Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a dusting of icing sugar, fresh berries, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
