Little pots of heaven

Last week I asked my Weight Watchers facebook group for suggestions of what recipe I should try and skinnify next. One lady suggested hot choc puddings with choc sauce but I wasn't hopeful it was possible, because I had already calculated my old recipe to around 10pp a portion..

Well my friends, this Friday night I will literally be eating my words because I have done it. These puddings are really lovely, chocolatey and indulgent, and only 4pp each. I've made them quite 'saucy' because they will be reheated on my hot plate for shabbos - if you're eating them immediately on taking them out of the oven, you might want to reduce the hot water from 4 tablespoons per pot, to 3.

INGREDIENTS

34g cocoa powder
100g flour
1 tsp baking powder
25g low fat spread
8g splenda
30g granulated sugar
80-100ml cold water
Approx 300ml boiling water

Mix 16g cocoa powder with the flour, splenda and baking powder. Add in the low fat spread, melted, and the cold water and mix to loose batter. I'd suggest starting with 80ml cold water and adding more until you achieve the correct consistancy.

Grease 5 mini pudding basins with frylite and spoon about 1.5 tablspoons of the cake batter into each one. Mix the remaining cocoa powder and sugar in a bowl. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons on to the surface of the batter in each basin. Then pour 4 tablespoons of boiling water into each one.

Bake in an oven preheat to 180' (160' fan assisted) for approximately 18 minutes, until the cake part of each pot passes the skewer test - I'd suggest testing after 15 minutes.

Serves 5, 4pp per portion.
