Microwave Chocolate Steam Pudding Recipe #376229
This is my first recipe post ever. A perfect example of comfort food, especially good on a cold Wintery day. I live in New Zealand and mum used to make this on rare occasions but now I have a home of my own I make it all the time! I have no idea where the recipe came from since she always made it by heart; I never saw her use a recipe book. In New Zealand we don't use pounds and ounces so I've tried to convert this for American audiences. Also, I tend to make more sauce than mum used to, I like it extra saucy, but what I've posted is the directions mum gave me (i.e. with the amount of sauce she used). NOTE: Is VERY filling but can be reheated the next day if you have leftovers. Being a guy I have no problem having leftover dessert for breakfast. ENJOY!

10 min | 3 min prep
SERVES 4 -8
SAUCE
- 2 teaspoons golden syrup
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 56 g butter
- 1 cup water
PUDDING
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa
- 3/4 cup sugar
- milk, 1 small amount (probably less than half a cup)
- SAUCE: In a microwave safe container combine all the sauce ingredients and cook on high til it's all melted together. Usually takes a couple of minutes to melt it all.
- PUDDING: While the sauce is microwaving, get a large, microwave-safe bowl (I often use a casserole dish) and throw in all the Pudding ingredients except the milk then gradually add the milk while stirring until it forms a soft, moist dough. It's important to use a large bowl because the dough will rise quite a bit as it cooks.
- COMBINE FOR DELICIOUSNESS: Pour all the sauce over the dough then put it in the microwave a cook on high for 7 minutes.
- SERVE: You can have this on it's own but I like to have it either with fresh cream or vanilla ice cream. I'll use a Kiwi (New Zealand) saying meaning you'll like this - "Sweet As!" Enjoy!
