Ingredients
- 100 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 75 grams caster sugar
- 2 whole large eggs
- 2 whole egg yolks
- 50 grams plain flour
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan)/400°F/gas mark 6. Lightly grease 4 ramekins and dust the insides with unsweetened cocoa powder to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Alternatively, melt them in short bursts in the microwave, stirring between intervals. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk the caster sugar, eggs, and egg yolks together until the mixture is pale and thick, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture using a spatula, ensuring it is fully incorporated.
Step 5
Sift the plain flour over the chocolate mixture and gently fold it in until no streaks of flour remain.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared ramekins, filling them about three-quarters full.
Step 7
Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for exactly 6 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centres will remain soft and gooey.
Step 8
Carefully remove the ramekins from the oven and let them rest for 1 minute. Run a knife around the edges of each pudding to loosen, then invert onto serving plates (optional).
Step 9
Serve immediately, optionally with a dusting of cocoa powder, fresh berries, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
