SELF SAUCING CHOCOLATE PUDDING

INGREDIENTS
2 cup self-raising flour
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup brown sugar
160g butter, melted, cooled
2/3 cup milk
4 tabs Kahlua
2 eggs, lightly beaten
Thick cream and berries, to serve

SAUCE
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
4 tablespoons cocoa powder, sifted
2 1/2 cups boiling water

METHOD
Grease a 10 inch camp oven with butter.  Sift flour and cocoa into a large bowl. Stir in sugar. Combine butter, milk, Kahlua and egg in a bowl and slowly add to flour mixture, mixing until well combined and smooth. Spoon mixture into your camp oven and smooth the top.

SAUCE - sprinkle the combined sugar and cocoa over pudding then slowly pour boiling water over the back of a large metal spoon to cover the pudding.  Bake for 35 to 40 minutes at 180 degrees or until pudding bounces back when pressed gently in centre. Serve hot with cream and berries.

This makes quite a large pudding.  Sorry no photos but everyone was so busy pigging out on it we all forgot to take one.   Oh yeah and we forgot the frozen mixed berries in the eski.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

You are not wrong there Derek

What can you expect after a great days cooking and eating.
Derek's and Logfire's desserts were a fitting finale.

Aart

I made a smaller half sized version in an 8" el cheapo.  It must have been ok as Sparky had two serves on the night and another the next night.

Hey Carolyn, that is very very good.  I am impressed.

Glad you approve Derek but I still feel you should do it "live".  Your video camera is very clear.  Pity I am not closer LOL.

I can envisage a mixture of stills and moving bits with some party tricks thrown in.  

I wish the first header showed but it doesnt seem you can choose that as can be seen in other Youtubes.

I find Youtubes so addictive to watch and there is really not much that hasnt been cooked or is a variation of most things.

That is actually my little ordinary camera on video mode.

I did a 1/2 size of this recipe in a cake tin on the weekend......fantastic!!

I was suprised to see how all the sauce ends up on the bottom of the tin, under the pud.

Will be doing this again in one of those donut shaped cake tins & turn it upside down to serve so all the sauce runs down over the pud!!

Nice one Derek (although I did try yours at Thora & liked it!)

Cheers, Mick.

Still one of my favourite desserts. Cooked this one up today.

Lost track of how many if those Ive made. They are always a big hit with anyone Ive made them for.

Rosie made one at the COG

Always a hit.
That and sticky date pud.

Yep, I often cook the sticky date puddings in the muffin tins for us at home.

I cooked one once that seemed to take for ever to cook ...couldn't work out why, at the time i thought the pudding batter looked a little on the runny side before I began cooking it. Turns out a certain member here and one of his offsiders  had mixed about 500mls of extra ingredient into it while my back was turned "Rum". It did cook in the end and was fairly moreish.

That was the best pudding you ever made SBB ;D ;D
With a little help from your friends  ;) ;D ;D

I seem to remember the campfire stories about that one.  I omitted the alcohohol on this one.  Basically because I didn’t have any.  :-/

It is on my shopping list though  :P

By the end of the night Dave I was too full to have any of Rosies pudding.  Bit disappointed in myself.

Mother’s Day today.  Cooked our favourite pudding.  Using the original recipe however substituted the Kahlua for 6 tablespoons of Baileys Irish Cream and just a tad less milk.

Cooked in the oven at home and turned out to be the lightest spongiest chocolate pudding I have ever cooked.

Well worth cooking this one.

Derek
That sounds very good. I am glad you enjoyed the cooking
Kev

Visiting family later.  Just cooked this to take for dessert.  I substituted the Kahluah with Tia Maria.   :D

No camp ovens involved.   8-)

Always a COG favourite.
With lots of double dollop cream.

Maggie is on semi-soft food for a while and I reckon this pudding I cooked today fits that category.

A few days worth here.   :D
