Hi All
After mentioning on Facebook the other day that I'd made this, I've had a lot of requests for the recipe so thought I would share with everyone!!
This is the best Chocolate Self-saucing Pudding I have ever had, and it's all made in the crock pot.
I used Kahlua as the alcohol in it although you can use just water if you like - it was to die for and it makes a big batch, enjoy!
Ingredients
3 cups self-raising flour
1/4 cup cocoa
100 grams butter, chilled and diced
1 cup sugar
2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
Chocolate sauce
3 1/2 cups boiling water
1/2 cup dark rum or coffee liqueur
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
Method
Turn the slow cooker on to low to pre-warm while gathering and preparing the ingredients.
Sift the flour and cocoa into a bowl. Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
Stir in the sugar and make a well in the centre.
Beat the milk, eggs and vanilla essence together and mix into the dry ingredients using a holed spoon to form a stiff batter.
Into the pre-warmed slow cooker, put the boiling water, rum or coffee liqueur, sugar and cocoa and stir to dissolve the cocoa.
Carefully spoon the batter evenly into the slow cooker and cover with the lid.
Cook on high for 1 hour then turn to low for a further 1 hour.
Serve hot with ice cream and cream.
Tip
The alcohol will have cooked out of the rum or liqueur, however, use only water for an alcohol-free recipe.
