How to Make Half Hour Steam Pudding

Melt 4 tablespoons (57g) of butter in a medium bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons (30ml) of golden syrup until well combined.
Add 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 large egg to the melted butter and syrup mixture. Gradually add enough cold water (approximately 1/2 cup, or more as needed) to form a smooth batter.
Grease a 1-quart pudding basin or heatproof bowl. Pour the batter into the prepared basin.
Place the basin in a larger pot or pan. Add enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the basin.
Bring the water to a simmer over medium heat, then cover the pot and steam for 30 minutes.
Carefully remove the pudding from the pot using tongs and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with custard or ice cream!
