Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Melt the chocolate in a small bowl over a pan of simmering water. Set aside while you prepare the pudding moulds.
- Grease 2 pudding moulds. Combine the cocoa powder with the extra ½ tsp caster sugar and use to dust the inside of each pudding mould. Put 2 discs of nonstick baking paper into the base of each mould, then put in the fridge until ready to fill.
- Cream the butter and the sugar together. Beat in the egg and yolk, then add the flour and smoked salt. Beat in the chocolate until completely smooth.
- Divide the mixture between the moulds and bake for 10 mins. Turn out onto plates and serve immediately with crème fraîche or raspberry ripple ice cream, if you like.
Tip: You can make this pudding ahead – make up to the point where you fill the moulds, then cover and keep in the fridge for up to a day in advance. Cook for an extra 2 mins from chilled.
If you can't find smoked salt, you can use regular sea salt to still get that tangy savoury-sweet combination of salted chocolate.
