First time I tried this recipe a few years ago I was very skeptical about having a 4 minute microwave pudding. I had never heard of a microwave cake let alone made one but I was pleasantly surprised. This pudding is very rich mainly because of the use if dark cooking chocolate. I LOVE IT, hope you do.

Ingredients

  1. 250g unsalted butter

  6. 1/3 cup milk
  7. ½ cup finely chopped mixed dried fruit
  8. 200g dark cooking chocolate, finely chopped
  9. Custard to serve

Instructions

Grease microwave safe bowls ( I used small ramekins and got 8 puddings, the size of the bowl will determine how many puddings you get but it will still serve 8)

Using an electric mixer beat the butter and ½ cup of sugar in a medium bowl until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time mixing well after each.

Mix the flour and cocoa into a different bowl and sift flour mixture over butter mixture.

Add the milk, dried fruit and chocolate. Stir with a wooded spoon until combined.

Spoon mixture into the bowls. Smooth surface

Microwave on high for four minutes for each bowl

Let to stand for a minute. Then drizzle over custard and serve at once.
