  • 100 g Sugar
  • 2 Eggs (size M)
  • 100 g self-raising flour (alternatively 100 g flour and 1/2 teaspoon of coated baking powder)
  • 500 g wild berries (e.g. blueberries, blackberries, rowan berries)
  • 75 g Muscovado sugar
  • 75 ml Orange juice
  • 4 TABLESPOONS Port wine
  • 1 TABLESPOON Cornstarch
  • 7-10 Tbsp Grease
  • baking paper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Aluminium foil
  • 7-10 Tbsp Kitchen yarn

Directions

  1. 1

    Break the chocolate into pieces and melt over a warm water bath. Remove the pot from the stove and let it cool down. Put butter in flakes and sugar in a bowl and stir until creamy with the whisk of the hand mixer. Stir in the eggs one by one. Fold in first the flour and then the melted chocolate

  2. 2

    Grease a pudding mould (1 litre capacity) and pour in the dough. Cover with a layer of baking paper and wrap in aluminium foil. Tie the foil well. Place in a pot and pour boiling water into the pot so that it reaches half of the pudding mould. Cover and simmer for approx. 1 1/2 hours until the surface of the pudding is firm enough that no more dent can be made by finger pressure.

  3. 3

    For the syrup, wash and clean the berries. Simmer the muscovado sugar and orange juice in a small pot at low heat for 4-6 minutes. Stir port wine and starch until smooth. Stir the starch into the syrup, bring to the boil and simmer for about 1 minute while stirring. Mix in the berries and take off

  4. 4

    Turn the chocolate pudding onto a warm plate and pour the berry syrup over it
