4. Pour the melted butter and chocolate over the egg mixture, stir and then fold in the sifted flour and cocoa powder with a metal spoon.
5. Lightly but thoroughly grease four oven proof dishes/ramekins and lightly dust with extra cocoa powder.
6. Divide the chocolate mixture among the dishes.
7. Place the dishes onto an oven proof tray and bake for 10-12 minutes.
8. When the outsides are crisp to the touch, carefully turn the puddings out of the moulds onto serving plates.

10. Serve with thick cream, creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream.
Raspberries or fruit coulis optional
