Ingredients | ||
150 g | Plain Flour | |
50 g | Cocoa | |
230 g | Sugar | |
90 g | Butter or Margarine | |
1 | Egg | |
0.5 tsp | Baking Powder | |
Milk |
Method
Cream the butter and the sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg with a little flour to prevent curdling. Sieve the baking powder, cocoa and the flour into the mixture and mix but do not beat. Add sufficient milk to form a soft dropping consistency.
Turn into a greased basin. Cover with two layers of greased proof paper and steam for 1.5 to 2 hours.
This can also be made in a pressure cooker in a fraction of the time. Follow the instructions in your pressure cooker guide.
