Chocolate Pudding

Sun was shining earlier today, so got up at a more reasonable time, was chilly until about 9am tho. Planted the lettuces I bought at market the other day, did some washing, had some breakfast, then started on juice making. Boys here today and they helped a lot, picked the rest of the grapes and did two batches of bottled juice which was all the grape juice with some left over to go in the fridge and be drunk over the next few days. So, we now have 104 bottles of juice!
Baked potatoes in the embers of the fire for supper. Now watching The Simpsons on RTP2 and waiting for a chocolate pudding to cook. This is a great recipe, really easy and delicious, and fantastic if you fancy a chocolate cake but haven’t got an oven:
CHOCOLATE PUDDING
Melt 75g butter or marge. Mix 1 egg with 6 tblsps milk. Add liquids to 150g SR flour, 25g cocoa powder & 50g sugar. I also mix in some chunks of cooking chocolate.
Put in a greased pudding bowl, cover top with foil. Put in pan of boiling water to about 1″ below top of pudding bowl and simmer for an hour.
Serve warm with chocolate custard and/or cream, or leave to cool and eat as cake.
Oh, and although I followed the recipe exactly (not much too it anyway) the grape jelly I made yesterday turned out REALLY runny. Anyone got a good recipe for next year?
Stumble it!
