Ingredients

50g butter
50g caster sugar
50g self-raising flour
1 egg
1 tbs cocoa
1/4 tsp baking powder
425g pitted black cherries drained

Chocolate sauce

100g white chocolate broken into pieces
150ml thickened cream

Method

Step 1

Preheat the slow cooker. Butter the inside of four 200lL capacity pudding moulds or ramekins, and line base with a round piece of baking paper.
Step 2

In a bowl, place butter, sugar, flour, egg, cocoa and baking powder, and beat together with a wooden spoon until smooth.
Step 3

Arrange cherries on the bottom of the moulds.
Step 4

Roughly chop the remainder and stir through the mix. Divide the mixture between the moulds and level the tops.
Step 5

Loosely cover the top of the moulds with foil and place in the slow cooker.
Step 6

Pour boiling water into the pot, so that it comes halfway up the sides of the moulds. Don't let it splash into the moulds.
Step 7

Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 1½-2 hours, or until puddings are well risen and the tops spring back when pressed. Remove from the slow cooker.
Step 8

Sauce: Place cream and chocolate in a saucepan and melt over a low heat.
Step 9

Loosen edges of puddings and turn them out into bowls. Pour the sauce around them before serving.
