    Method

    • step 1

      Heat the oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4. Grease a two-pint souffle dish or other ovenproof bowl. (I found you need a bigger than two-pint souffle dish or the pudding will ooze out over the side while cooking)
    • step 2

      Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar and a fat pinch of salt in a bowl.
    • step 3

      Beat the milk, butter, egg and vanilla extract together and mix into the flour and cocoa.
    • step 4

      Scrape the mixture into the souffle dish. Prinkle the topping ingredients over the pudding and pour the boiling water over the top.
    • step 5

      Bake for 35-40 minutes. Serve while hot.
