Sunday lunch at home and a fab chocolate pudding

Sunday Roast Lunch Beef, Yorkshire pudding and all the trimmings at home today followed by a quick but fabulous chocolate pot pudding

So easy to make and tastes wonderful

6oz dark chocolate good quality
3 large eggs separated
Capful of Cointreau or other liqueur
Double or whipping cream to serve
Fresh raspberries to decorate

Melt some good quality plain chocolate I used Lindt or Green and Black's plain 70% dark chocolate, in a bowl over hot water but don't let the chocolate get overheated... just about melting point as when you add the eggs  you will scramble them and it will split.  Add 3 egg yolks and beat.

Whisk the egg whites to a soft peak stiffness and then fold into the chocolate egg mixture and then put into individual containers and chill for a couple of hours.

I then drizzled some Cointreau over the top then a little double cream and decorated with a raspberry and served with additional raspberries on the side, as it is a very rich.
