A rich and gooey self-saucing chocolate pudding filled with chunks of Snickers bars, topped with whipped cream, peanuts, and a silky caramel sauce. Warm, fudgy, and indulgent — the ultimate comfort dessert.

Ingredients

75 g butter

1/2 cup milk

1 1/3 cups brown sugar (divided)

1 cup self-raising flour

1/3 cup cocoa powder (divided)

1 egg, lightly beaten

4 x 50 g Snickers chocolate bars, chopped

1 3/4 cups boiling water

Whipped cream, to serve

Chopped salted roasted peanuts, to serve

Caramel sauce:

1/3 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup pure cream

15 g butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) and grease an 8-cup-capacity ovenproof dish.
  2. In a saucepan, combine butter, milk, and 2/3 cup of the brown sugar. Stir over medium heat for 3 minutes until butter melts. Remove from heat and cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Sift in the flour and half the cocoa powder. Stir to combine, then add the egg and half the chopped Snickers bars. Mix until smooth.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared dish and place on a baking tray.
  5. Sift the remaining cocoa powder over the top and sprinkle over the remaining brown sugar.
  6. Gently pour the boiling water over the back of a spoon to cover the mixture without disturbing it.
  7. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the pudding springs back when lightly touched. Let stand for 5 minutes.
  8. Meanwhile, make the caramel sauce: combine brown sugar, pure cream, and butter in a small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves, then simmer for 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.
  9. Serve the warm pudding topped with whipped cream, chopped roasted peanuts, and the remaining Snickers chunks. Drizzle with warm caramel sauce.

Notes

Replace Snickers with Mars Bars or peanut butter chips for a different twist.

Add dark chocolate chunks for a richer flavor.

For a salted caramel version, add a pinch of sea salt to the sauce.

Best served warm, but leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.

Reheat gently in the microwave or oven; add a splash of cream or water to loosen the sauce if needed.
