Recipe No. 24 - Chocolate Fudge Hot Pot Pudding

This recipe is the ultimate comfort food when its cold outside and you can't wait to get home to something rich and gooey.

The recipe is amazingly simple, all of the ingredients are combined and added to a well greased dish.
Then this next bit seems so odd to me, coca powder and hot water are combined to make a thin, watery chocolate sauce and it is poured over the mixture.

The dish is put in a hot oven for about 35 minutes so that it is still runny at the bottom and served with ice cream or cream.. This went down so well and served slightly more than recommended - and we were not scrimping on the portions! I'd say it served about 9, 5 the first day and then I kept it in the fridge overnight. The next evening I poured a little more hot water over the sponge to keep it moist and heated it in the oven at about 180c for 15-18 minutes and it came out just as nice as the day before!

Happy Baking! xx
