Method

Ingredients

1. Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Spray a 2-litre dish or loaf tin with non-stick cooking spray. Mix the bicarbonate of soda and milk. Add the eggs, apricot jam, coffee and butter and mix well.

2. Sift the flour, caster sugar and salt together in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the middle. Add the dark and white chocolate drops. Mix the wet ingredients and add to the dry ingredients. Stir to form a smooth batter. Pour into the prepared dish or tin. Bake for 25–30 minutes until cooked through.

3. While the pudding bakes, make the sauce. Boil all the sauce ingredients together for two minutes, be careful that the mixture doesn’t boil over. As soon as the pudding comes out of the oven, pour over the sauce and wait for it to be completely absorbed. Serve lukewarm with ice cream or vanilla custard.
