chocolate lava puddings

Excuse my blurry photo which I quickly snapped with my phone - but I couldn't wait to dig into my pudding because it looked and smelt sooooo good! And tasted even better!

Chocolate Lava Puddings

Serves 4

125g dark cooking chocolate
125g butter
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
35g plain flour
Pouring cream to serve

Pre-heat oven to 220° and grease four 1-cup ramekins with butter. Add a tiny spoonful of flour to each ramekin and shake the flour around to cover the butter on the base and sides. Tap out any excess flour, then place ramekins on a baking tray.

Melt the chocolate and butter in a microwave safe bowl, stopping to stir every 20 seconds until the chocolate and butter have thoroughly melted and blended together.

In another bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar and flour until blended. Gradually whisk in the melted chocolate mixture.

Pour pudding mixture into the remakins and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are firm and just starting to crack and the edges are set.

Serve immediately with a splash of cream. Yum!
