Step-by-step
- Set the oven at 200°c/Gas 6 (390 degrees F).
- Lightly butter 4 small ramekins or ovenproof cups.
- Break the chocolate into rough pieces and leave to melt in a basin suspended over gently simmering water. Let it melt without stirring, occasionally poking any unmelted chocolate down into the liquid chocolate.
- Put the sugar into the bowl of the food mixer, separate the eggs and add the yolks to the sugar. Beat till thick and creamy.
- Whisk the egg whites till airy and almost stiff.
- Stir the butter into the chocolate and leave to melt then gently stir in the chocolate hazelnut spread.
- Fold the chocolate mixture into the egg and sugar then carefully fold in the beaten egg whites with a metal spoon. Take care not to over mix. Just firmly, calmly mix the egg white into the chocolate making certain there are no floating drifts of egg white.
- Scoop into the four buttered dishes and place on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes till risen. The tops should be cracked and the centres still slightly wobbly.
As a busy working woman, I don't always have time to cook elaborate desserts. But when I do, I love to indulge in something decadent and delicious. This Hot Chocolate Pudding is the perfect treat for those special occasions.
The pudding is made with a rich chocolate batter that is baked until it is fluffy on the outside and molten on the inside. It's like a cross between a soufflé and a sponge pudding, and it's absolutely heavenly. The best part? It's surprisingly easy to make.
