Ingredients

Method
  • 120 g dark or milk chocolate
  • 120 g self-raising flour
  • 1 free-range egg
  • 75 g white sugar
  • ½ cup strong black coffee
  • 25 g butter, melted
  • 1 t vanilla extract or ½ t vanilla essence
  • A pinch of salt
  • 6 chocolate truffles, for serving

Method

Ingredients

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over a low heat or very slowly in a microwave oven, stirring until silky in texture. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.

Spoon into 6 demitasse cups.

Cover the base of a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Place the puddings inside. Cover and steam for 8 to 10 minutes, until the puddings are cooked on top and well puffed, but soft and liquid at the bottom.

Remove from the heat and serve immediately with a chocolate truffle on top.
