I love desserts like this strawberry hot chocolate pudding. It's rich, decadent and very tasty thanks to the winning combination of dark chocolate and strawberries.
While they look amazing with heart-shaped strawberries, and even eating them has an air of theatricality thanks to the gooey centre, they're actually super easy to make.
This is especially perfect if you're looking for something to impress for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day or a birthday but don't want to spend hours in the kitchen.
And the strawberries aren't just on top. In the batter, you'll find strawberry yogurt, the type complete with yummy strawberry chunks.
Here's how to make this incredible dessert.
Ingredients
- 100g (3.5 oz) dark chocolate
- 90g (3 oz) butter (plus a little for greasing)
- 4 tbsp strawberry yogurt
- 2 medium free-range eggs
- 70g (2.5 oz) caster sugar
- 50g (1.75 oz) flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 100g (3.5 oz) strawberries
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 210C/410F (200C/390F fan assisted). Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
Stir in the butter until melted.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until the mixture is pale, creamy and fluffy.
Fold the yogurt into the egg mix.
Tip the cooled chocolate into the egg mix and fold through.
Add the flour and baking powder and continue to fold until nice and even.
Divide the mixture between the six greased ramekins and chill for an hour.
Bake for 6-8 minutes. The tops should just set.
Top each ramekin with a sliced strawberry and enjoy.
