NANA'S HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Steps:

• Sift and whisk sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt together in a saucepan.
• Heat saucepan over medium heat. Pour milk in slowly, whisking constantly until incorporated. Cook, stirring often with a metal spoon, until pudding is noticeably thicker and clings to the spoon, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Divide between 4 small bowls and serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Peel, core and slice the apples. Grease a large serving dish, about 2.5 litre/3 litre with 25g/1oz of the butter and tip in the apple. Scatter the raisins over the top.
• In a separate dish beat the remaining butter and sugar together for 10 mins until the butter turns pale and the sugar starts to dissolve. Beat in the eggs, then carefully fold in the flour with a large spoon. Spread the batter over the apples, then bake for 45 mins until golden. Serve with the custard, below.

Steps:

• Slice the apples finely.
• Grease a 1 pint fireproof dish and place half the apples in it. Add the sugar and cloves then place the remainder of the apples on top.
• Cream the butter and sugar together then add the beaten egg a little at a time. Add the sifted flour to this mixture and mix well.
• Grate as much of a good quality chocolate bar as you wish into the mixture and mix well again.
• Spread over apples and bake until the sponge is firm and lightly browned.
• Serve directly from the dish and enjoy! If you're not serving it to the kids, you may wish to substitute the chocolate for chocolate liqueur.
• How much you use is again, entirely up to you!

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8 1/2-inch square baking dish; set aside. Whisk flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Put apples, 1/4 cup sugar, the lemon juice, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt into a large bowl; toss to combine. Transfer to prepared baking dish, and sprinkle 2 tablespoons water over top; set aside.
• Put butter and 6 tablespoons sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition. Mix in vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until combined.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of butter with the brown sugar, and pour into a 10-inch round cake pan. Coat the bottom of the pan evenly with the mixture. Quarter the plums and arrange them neatly to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Cream the remaining butter with the sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract, and beat in the egg yolks one at a time.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt, and add them to the batter alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Whisk the egg whites until they hold a slight shape. Fold the egg whites into the batter a third at a time until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and spread it evenly over the plums. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until the top is browned and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 20 minutes, and then turn over onto a cake plate. Serve with whipped cream.
