GUINNESS CHOCOLATE PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Butter four 9 x 5cm ramekins and set aside. Tip the butter, chocolate and a generous pinch of salt into a heatproof bowl. Set over a small pan of just-simmering water and stir until melted, then remove from the heat and leave to cool a little.
• Put the sugar and eggs in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric whisk until pale, almost doubled in volume and thick enough to leave a trail when the beaters are lifted up. Gently fold in the melted chocolate and the Guinness. Spoon the mixture into the ramekins, then chill in the fridge for 1 hr. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and put a baking tray on the top shelf to heat up.

• ~The higher the cacoa content of the chocolate, the more you'll taste it, rather than the Guinness.
• ~Do NOT substitute half and half for heavy whipping cream--pudding and topping won't set up correctly.
• ~ You can omit the sugar from the whipped topping, but it will be slightly bitter. The pudding is so rich, some people think the slightly bitter topping compliments it well, but you can decide based on your own tastes. Some folks like just plain whipped cream--no sweetener, no flavoring.
• ~ because the pudding is so rich, you can use smaller glasses and divide it into 8-10 servings.
