Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 1
Slice and de-pit Cherry (1/2 cup). Set in a bowl of Crème de Cassis (to taste) to marinate.
step 2
Rub butter inside the 6 ramekins. Add some sugar to each, then tap the sugar around the inside of the ramekin to coat the butter. Pour out the extra.
step 3
Combine All-Purpose Flour (2 2/3 cups), Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (3 tsp), Salt (1 pinch) and Baking Powder (0.5 oz) in a bowl and set aside.
step 4
Place the Instant Coffee (1 Tbsp) and Milk (1/3 cup) in a saucepan and place on the hob over moderate heat and bring to a boil.
step 5
Then take the pan off the heat and stir in the Milk Chocolate (1/3 cup) until the chocolate has completely melted.
step 6
In a separate bowl, mix the Butter (4.5 oz) and Granulated Sugar (2/3 cup) together until pale and fluffy.
step 7
Beat in the Eggland's Best Classic Eggs (2), one at a time.
step 8
Sieve the flour mix and then gently fold in with the melted chocolate mix.
step 9
Spoon a few marinated cherries into the bottom of each ramekin and top with the chocolate mixture. Stand the puddings in a perforated steam oven tray.
step 10
Set the oven to 'Humidity High' on level 2 on 90 degrees C (195 degrees F) for 45 minutes.
step 11
Turn the cakes out onto a serving dish and serve warm with a dusting of Powdered Confectioners Sugar (1 1/2 Tbsp) on top. Optionally, you can drizzle with the cherry-Cremé de cassis liquid and plate with a marinated cherry.
