Ingredients

• 120 g chocolate

• 1 1/2 cups self raising flour

• 1 free-range egg, beaten

• 75 g white sugar

• 125 ml black coffee

• 25 g soft butter

• A few drops vanilla extract

Cooking Instructions

1. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over a low heat or very slowly in a microwave oven, stirring until silky in texture. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.

2. Spoon into 6 demitasse cups.

3. Cover the base of a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Place the puddings inside. Cover and steam for 8 to 10 minutes, until the puddings are cooked on top and well puffed, but soft and liquid at the bottom.

4. Remove from the heat and serve immediately with a chocolate truffle on top.
