Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams semisweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 125 milliliters whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250 grams pitted cherries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 2-liter baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
In a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, melt the chocolate chips and butter together, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Whisk both the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until fully combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the pitted cherries gently to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle. A toothpick inserted along the edges should come out clean, but the center should remain moist and fudgy.
Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve the pudding warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar. Pair with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
