Method

Place all the chocolate sponge ingredients into a bowl and beat well to a soft consistency.
2
Spoon into a greased 1.4 lt (2½ pt.) ovenproof dish and smooth over.

Make the sauce by combining the sugar and cocoa together in a small basin, pour over the boiling water and whisk together well. Pour this carefully over the chocolate sponge mix.
4
Bake in the oven for approx. 35 minutes. Turn the pudding out into a deep rimmed dish.
