CHOCOLATE-ORANGE STEAMED PUDDING WITH CHOCOLATE SAUCE



Chocolate-orange steamed pudding with chocolate sauce image

A classic chocolate-orange flavour in a rich and squidgy dessert that's low in sugar but no less tasty!

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

50g cocoa
50g butter , plus extra for greasing
100g Total Sweet (xylitol, see tip)
1 tsp vanilla extract
200ml semi-skimmed milk
1 small orange
100g Total Sweet (xylitol)
225g self-raising flour
50g cocoa
150ml semi-skimmed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 large eggs

Steps:

  • First, make the sauce. Sift the cocoa into a small saucepan, add all the other ingredients, then warm over a medium-high heat, stirring. Allow to bubble hard for 1 min to make a glossy sauce. Spoon 4 tbsp into the base of a lightly buttered, traditional 1.2 litre pudding basin. Leave the rest to cool, stirring occasionally.
  • Put a very large pan (deep enough to enclose the whole pudding basin) of water on to boil with a small upturned plate placed in the base of the pan to support the basin.
  • Zest the orange, then cut the peel and pith away, and cut between the membrane to release the segments. Put all the pudding ingredients, except the orange segments, in a food processor and blitz until smooth. Add the orange segments and pulse to chop them into the pudding mixture. Spoon the mixture into the pudding basin, smoothing to the edges.
  • Tear off a sheet of foil and a sheet of baking parchment, both about 30cm long. Butter the baking parchment and use to cover the foil. Fold a 3cm pleat in the middle of the sheets, then place over the pudding, buttered baking parchment-side down. Tie with string under the lip of the basin, making a handle as you go. Trim the excess parchment and foil to about 5cm, then tuck the foil around the parchment to seal. Lower the basin into the pan of water, checking that the water comes tw o-thirds of the way up the sides of the basin, then cover the pan with a lid to trap the steam and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
  • Carefully unwrap the pudding - it should now be risen and firm - and turn out of the basin on to a plate. Spoon over some warmed sauce and serve the rest separately with slices of the pudding.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will give you a rich, chocolatey pudding.
  • Make sure to grease the ramekins well before adding the pudding batter. This will help the puddings to come out cleanly when they are done.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pudding tough.
  • Steam the puddings for the correct amount of time. Undercooked puddings will be runny, while overcooked puddings will be dry.
  • Serve the puddings warm with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries.

Conclusion:

Steamed chocolate pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and creamy texture, this pudding is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
