Chocolate fondant

Serves - 2

Rich dark chocolate pudding, perfect with seasonal berries and a splash of cream.

This recipe is so indulgent - you can’t believe it won’t pile on the pounds! It’s a real dinner party dessert winner, but is actually super simple to make make - just make sure your moulds are nonstick otherwise you may need to serve them in their pots - which is also fine.
