Maltesers chocolate pudding with caramel sauce recipe

This tasty and simple Maltesers chocolate pudding is a perfectly sweet and gooey cake with a blend of white chocolate Maltesers, sponge and caramel.

Serve this sticky dessert, made with Maltesers chocolate, straight from the oven for the best results.

The caramel sauce is rich and perfectly complements the malt crunch of the chocolate scattered through out the sponge.

Malt-tease your guests with this for a special occasion or just as a family treat at the end of the week as it is really cheap and simple to throw together.

It’s perfect if you ever have white Maltesers in the cupboard you need to use up (although we can’t realistically imagine when this might happen…)

The biggest challenge here is trying not to scoff too many of them whilst you’re making it.

Ingredients

• 125g white chocolate Maltesers
• 150g soft brown muscovado sugar
• 125g self raising flour
• 25g cocoa plus 3tbsp
• 100g low fat natural bio yoghurt

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/gas mark 6. Grease 6 individual oven-proof dishes or ramekins.
2. Place the Maltesers in a large mixing bowl along with the sugar, flour and 25g cocoa.
3. Whisk together the yoghurt, vanilla, eggs and butter. Pour into the flour mixture and stir until combined. Transfer to the dishes.
