Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

150 g bar Co-operative Loved By Us dark chocolate
150 g unsalted butter
4 Co-operative British free range eggs
90 g caster sugar
2 tbsp cocoa powder
75 g self raising flour
16 mini chocolate eggs

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/Gas 5. Take 8 small pudding moulds or ovenproof cups or dishes and lightly butter and base line them. Over gently simmering water melt the chocolate and butter together, stir until completely melted, then take off the heat and set aside.
Take the (real) eggs and crack them into a bowl, then add the caster sugar and use an electric whisk to beat together until fluffy and light. Take the cooled chocolate and butter mixture that we set aside earlier and add a few spoonfuls, then fold together.
Fold in the remaining chocolate mixture until all combined.
Get the cocoa powder and flour and sieve it into the bowl and gently fold again. Spoon the mixture into the pudding moulds. Poke two chocolate eggs into the middle of each one and bake for 7 minutes. Serve while still warm.
