Chocolate Self-Saucing Pudding

Chocolate Self-Saucing Pudding

4 tablespoons butter
½ cup milk
1 cup flour
½ cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cocoa

Sauce:
3 tablespoons coconut
½ cup sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
2 cups hot water

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Grease a large casserole dish, one that has a lid.

Melt the butter in a large bowl. Add the milk and sift in the dry ingredients, and mix well to make a smooth batter.

Place the mixture in the greased casserole dish.

Mix together dry sauce ingredients - that is the cocoa, sugar and coconut. Sprinkle over dough.

Pour hot water over the pudding as gently as you can.

Bake with lid on for 50 minutes. Like a cake, it will be done when a skewer comes out clean but that is a little hard to judge due to the sauce. It is very important that the oven is pre-heated and properly hot when the pudding goes in.
