Recipe Tips
- This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled if you need to feed quite a few people. However, I recommend that you split it across a couple of ovenproof dishes so that the puddings bake consistently.
- You can add some chocolate chips into the pudding mix, so you get even more gooey chocolate. I recommend using milk chocolate, but you can also use dark chocolate or white chocolate instead.
- Caster sugar is also known as superfine sugar or baker's sugar. It can be substituted with regular sugar if required.
- Having the butter and eggs at room temperature will make this dish easier to prepare. If they’re cold, then you might find they will not mix together very well. If your mix is a bit lumpy from the eggs and butter being too cold, then it should still be fine as you won’t notice this at the end of baking.
