This recipe is so nice but so unhealthy.
Be warned about the high sugar, cocoa and fat. Diabetes alert!
You can cook it any sort of oven dish as long as it has high side to stop it boiling over.
The pudding will rise and go spongy. The sauce will thicken and be absorbed by the pudding.
I have served it with orange zest and segments to cut through the sweet fatty chocolate.
