Method

Butter the inside of two 1.2 litre pudding basins.

Pour 50g of golden syrup into the base of each basin.

Beat the butter, sugar, and cocoa powder in a mixer until fluffy.

Mix in half the eggs and half the flour until combined.

Add the remaining eggs and flour and mix until the batter reaches a dropping consistency.

Divide the mixture between the basins, filling each three-quarters full.

Cover loosely with cling film and microwave on high for five minutes.

Check with a skewer and let stand for five minutes before inverting onto a plate.
