with chilli chocolate sauce
Serves 6
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 20 minutes
Dark, rich and wonderfully comforting. Hot chocolatey sponge drizzled with a spiced sauce that contrasts with the cold creaminess of vanilla-flavoured mascarpone or ice cream.
Cook's tip
Prunes help to keep the sponge puddings moist. Mashed sweet potato could be used instead.
GF tip
A commercial flour blend, with the raising agent already added, is a handy standby. If you have time, experiment with making your own gluten-free flour blends, using combinations of tapioca flour, cornflour, rice flour, sorghum flour and potato starch.

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Lightly oil 6 x 200ml/7fl oz/¾ cup individual metal pudding moulds.
-
Step 2
Put the prunes, water, cardamom pods and their black seeds and ground cinnamon in a small saucepan, bring the water to the boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.
-
Step 3
Discard the cardamom pods, then purée the mixture in a blender and spoon into a bowl. Whisk in the oil, eggs and muscovado sugar, then stir in the flour and cocoa until smooth.
-
Step 4
Divide among the pudding moulds, place on a baking sheet and bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes, until well risen.
-
Step 5
Meanwhile, make the sauce: put the chocolate, sugar, cinnamon and chilli in a small saucepan. Pour in the milk and heat gently, stirring, until the chocolate has melted and the sauce is smooth and glossy.
-
Step 6
Loosen the edges of the puddings, turn out of the tins into shallow serving bowls and dust lightly with cocoa and icing sugar. Add a spoonful of vanilla-flavoured mascarpone to each bowl, drizzle with the warm sauce and serve immediately.
