Molton Chocolate Puddings


I've been looking for an easy warming pud to make for the Christmas pudding haters in our family (there are a few of them!)...and I think I've found it. These are so simple taking just 5 minutes to prepare and about 10 minutes in the oven and taste gorgeously rich and gooey. You could easily double the recipe to serve 8 if you needed to cater for a larger number of people and for an added seasonal twist you could omit the vanilla extract and add the zest of 1 or 2 clementines.

I promise you will be impressed by these!

  3. A friend of mine is always banging on about how good Gú chocolate puddings are. Spookily he was here last night with a couple of them to try just as your post came through, thus giving us the opportunity to do an ad-hoc taste test.

    We both agreed that these homemade ones were far superior in both taste and texture. Nice work.

  5. These look gorgeous and would be great for Christmas dinner. I used to make these a lot, but weirdly haven't done so since starting my blog.
