Valentine's Day Chocolate Pudding

Serves: 4 cakes

Prep: 15min

Difficulty: easy

This recipe is a must for St Valentine. Chocolate is the king ingredient and its richness will conquer the heart of the person you love

Mamma Flora tip: If you like extra richness, put a small piece of dark chocolate in the middle of the pudding muds with the mixture just before baking


150g Dark chocolate

80g Butter (+ some more to butter the moulds)

20g Flours

10g Unsweetened cocoa powder (+some more to coat the moulds)

2 eggs

1 yolk

90g icing sugar


2 bowls

1 pot

Electric whisk


4 Pudding Moulds

Silicone spatula


Pre-heat the oven at 180

Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl, set over, a pot of simmering water and stir occasionally until melted. When melted turn off the heat and add the butter to the chocolate, mix it and leave to rest

In another bowl whisk the eggs and the yolk with the icing sugar until pale and moussey.

Add the chocolate and the butter melted to the mixture and continue whisking until smooth. Sift the cocoa and flour in the mixture and gently fold with the spatula

Butter the pudding moulds then coat them with some cocoa. Take out the excess cocoa

Spoon into the prepared moulds, stopping just shy of the top. Bake for 13-14 mins (depending on your oven)

Turn them out onto plates and serve them hot with extra icing sugar or ice cream
