Have a sweet tooth or chocolate cravings? We know exactly how you feel…

Sometimes you’ve got to treat yourself and this recipe for a chocolate pudding is not only straightforward and easy to manage, but the finished product tastes absolutely divine too.

So without further ado, here’s Carton House‘s recipe for an excellent dairy-free chocolate pudding!

Ingredients (Serves 12)

  • 1 tsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • 350g plain flour
  • 100g cocoa powder
  • 2tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • Pinch of Salt
  • 350g caster sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp raspberry vinegar
  • 230ml vegetable oil
  • 450ml water

Method

  • You will need a 10-inch, spring release cake tin. Preheat the oven to 170c / gas mark 3. Grease the bottom and sides of the cake tin, then dust with caster sugar to form a non stick base.
  • In a large bowl, sieve the flour, cocoa powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt. Stir in the caster sugar.
  • In another large bowl, mix the vanilla extract, raspberry vinegar, oil and water together. If you cannot get your hands on raspberry vinegar, try champagne vinegar.
  • Very quickly, but thoroughly, mix the two bowls together and pour into the cake tin.
  • Bake in the pre-heated oven for 35-40mins, checking regularly.
  • Serve hot or cold with a raspberry compote or cream.
