Method:

1. Lightly grease a 1.2 liter/2pt pudding basin.

2. Place all the pudding ingredients in a mixing bowl and beat until well combined and smooth. Spoon into the prepared basin and level the top.

3. Cover with a disc of baking parchment and tie a pleated sheet of aluminum foil over the basin. Steam for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the pudding is cooked and springy to the touch.

4. To make the sauce, break the chocolate into small pieces and place in a small pan with the condensed milk.

5. Heat gently, stirring until the chocolate melts. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the double cream.

6. To serve the pudding, turn it out on to a serving plate and pour over a little of the chocolate fudge sauce. Serve the remaining sauce separately.
