Serves: 6

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup self raising flour, sifted
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, sifted
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 75g Western Star Salt Reduced Butter, melted and cooled
  • 1/4 cup sifted cocoa powder, extra
  • 1 1/4 cups boiling water
  • Icing sugar, for dusting
  • Thick cream or ice cream, for serving

Method:

Combine flour, cocoa and 1/3 cup brown sugar in a bowl.

Combine milk, egg and butter and add to dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon until thick and smooth. Pour mixture into a buttered 1.5 litre capacity microwave safe dish.

Combine remaining brown sugar and cocoa and sprinkle evenly over cake mixture. Pour boiling water evenly over brown sugar mixture.

Cook at 500w/50% capacity for 13 minutes. Cover loosely and stand for 10 minutes before dusting with icing sugar and serving with cream or ice cream.

Cooking Time: 13 minutes plus 10 minutes standing time

Hints:

Standing time is necessary when cooking in a microwave, as the food continues to further cook on standing.

The centre of the pudding might appear undercooked when removed from oven. Don't be tempted to cook further, the pudding will cook through upon standing.
