100g dark chocolate drops (we love Donovans Chocolate)
¼ cup black coffee
2 large eggs
½ cup firmly packed soft brown sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
¼ cup corn flour
1 tsp baking soda
¼ cup cocoa powder, sifted (we love Donovans Chocolate)
¼ cup Ground Almonds
½ cup Walnuts, roughly chopped
50ml cream
Instructions
Place prunes and water in a small saucepan over a medium-low heat and simmer until the prunes are very tender and liquid has mostly reduced. Set aside to cool
Preheat oven to 180C
Place chocolate and coffee in a heatproof bowl and set over a saucepan of gently simmering water to melt, or microwave in short bursts until melted. Stir until smooth then combine with the prune mixture
Place eggs, sugar and vanilla in a bowl and whisk with an electric mixer until thick and pale
Fold in the chocolate prune mixture
Sift cornflour, baking soda and cocoa together and gently fold into the chocolate mixture to just combine
Fold in the almonds and walnuts
Spoon the mixture into 6 x 1-cup capacity baking dishes, set on an oven tray
Bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre of one comes out moist but clean. Drizzle with a little chocolate sauce and enjoy!
To make chocolate sauce, melt chocolate and cream together and whisk until smooth. Serve warm
