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.
