Main ingredient: egg
Pairs well with: toast, hash browns, fruit salad, bacon, avocado
Ingredients
- 1 cup brown sugar, loosely packed
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened — for the sauce
- 1 1/4 cups boiling water
- 1 cup plain flour
- 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened — for the batter
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1¾ oz butter, melted
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 1½ qt ovenproof dish.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, white sugar, batter cocoa and salt in a bowl. Add the milk, melted butter, egg and vanilla and stir until just combined into a thick batter.
- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared dish.
- Stir the brown sugar and sauce cocoa together and sprinkle evenly over the batter. Gently pour the boiling water over the back of a spoon so it covers the top without disturbing the batter. Do not stir.
- Bake for 28–30 minutes until the top is set and springy but the centre still wobbles slightly — the sauce forms underneath as it bakes.
- Rest for 5 minutes and serve warm, spooning the chocolate sauce from the bottom over each serving, with cream or ice cream.
