1. To make the syrup, combine all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil over a medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes.

3. Dissolve the bicarbonate of soda in the milk then add to the batter, alternating with the flour, cocoa and salt, beating between additions. Add the vinegar and beat until well combined.

4. Divide the batter between 4 x 250 ml greased ramekins or an ovenproof dish. Pour over half the sauce, cover with foil and bake at 180°C for 20 minutes.

5. Remove from the oven, pour over the remaining syrup and bake uncovered for 5 minutes. Serve hot with vanilla ice cream.

Kerrygold butter, one of Ireland’s most famous exports, perfectly showcases the benefits of grass-fed Irish milk produced by grass-fed cows. It’s also the butter of choice for discerning cooks, not only for finishing off dishes but for cooking with, too.
