How to Make Festive Chocolate Cream Pudding Microwave

  1. In a large bowl, sift together 100g brown sugar, 2 tablespoons cornflour, 2 tablespoons plain flour, and 2 tablespoons cocoa powder.
  2. Whisk in 500ml milk until smooth.
  3. Microwave on high (100%) for 7-7.5 minutes, whisking every 2 minutes, until the mixture thickens.
  4. In a separate bowl, lightly beat 2 large egg yolks.
  5. Gradually whisk in 6 tablespoons of the hot custard mixture into the egg yolks.
  6. Blend thoroughly, then stir the yolk mixture back into the remaining custard in the microwave-safe bowl.
  7. Microwave on high for another 1-2 minutes, or until the custard is thick and coats the back of a spoon.
  8. Remove from microwave and stir in 50g softened butter until fully incorporated.
  9. Cover the bowl with cling film, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and let cool completely.
  10. In a clean bowl, whisk 2 large egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  11. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cooled custard.
  12. Pour the pudding into individual serving glasses or a larger dish.
