Where to find ingredients
You can find all these staples, such as condensed milk and cocoa powder, in the baking aisle of any local supermarket. For the best result, use good quality cocoa powder rather than drinking chocolate. If you cannot find a direct substitute for the specific texture, stick to plain wheat flour.
Preparation method

- Add the butter to the blender jug.
- Pour in the whole milk.
- Add the egg yolks.
- Include the plain flour.
- Add the cocoa powder.
- Blitz everything until you achieve a completely smooth, uniform batter.
- Pour the mixture into a large mixing bowl.
- Gently fold in the whisked egg whites using a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Grease a large cake tin or pudding mould with butter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared mould.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for approximately 1 hour.
- Remove from the oven and allow it to cool thoroughly for at least 2 hours.
- Carefully turn the chilled pudding out onto a serving plate.
- Finish by sprinkling chocolate sprinkles over the top before serving.
