INGREDIENTS
| A little Trex, for greasing | |
| 4tbsp | Chocolate spread |
| 100g | Self-raising flour |
| 1½ tbsp | Cocoa powder |
| ¼ tsp | Salt |
| 75g | Light soft brown sugar |
| 65g | Trex, at room temperature |
| 1 | Large egg |
| 3 ½ tbsp | Milk |
| ½ tsp | Vanilla extract |
| Custard, to serve |
Method
Lightly grease four individual pudding basins with a little Trex, then add 1 tbsp chocolate spread to each basin.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder and salt into a mixing bowl. Add the sugar, Trex, unbeaten egg, milk and vanilla extract. Use a wooden spoon to beat the mixture together until smooth and creamy – this will only take 1-2 minutes.
Share the mixture equally between the pudding basins and level the tops. Cover each one tightly with a piece of foil.
Place the basins in a steamer, cover with the lid and steam steadily for 30-35 minutes, taking care that the steamer does not boil dry – top up with boiling water if necessary.
Carefully turn out the puddings and serve with custard.
