Nonstick baking spray, for the ramekins
2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter, melted

Yield Makes 3

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup whole milk
1 ounce (about 1/4 cup) white chocolate, chopped into 3/4-inch pieces
2 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
3/4 cup boiling water
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the batter: Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with rack in center. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt into a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Stir together butter, sugar, and vanilla in another medium bowl. Stir in flour mixture and milk, then the chocolate.
  • Make the topping: Stir sugars in a small bowl, smoothing any lumps. Sift in cocoa powder; stir to combine.
  • Place 3 ramekins (each 3 1/2 inches in diameter and 1 1/2 inches deep) on a baking sheet. Pour in batter. Sprinkle with topping. Pour 1/4 cup boiling water into each. Bake until set, 25 to 28 minutes. Top with ice cream; serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor. A chocolate with a cacao content of at least 70% is ideal.
  • Make sure the chocolate and milk are finely chopped before adding them to the saucepan. This will help them melt and combine smoothly.
  • Stir the pudding constantly while it is cooking to prevent it from scorching.
  • Do not overcook the pudding. It should be thick and creamy, but not too firm.
  • Chill the pudding for at least 2 hours before serving. This will allow it to set and develop its full flavor.
  • Serve the pudding with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries.

Conclusion:

Dark chocolate pudding sundaes are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of toppings. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try!
