Preparation method

Prep: 10 mins | Cook: 3 mins

In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth.

Mix in the egg and milk gradually, so as not to curdle the butter.

Sift in the flour, and fold in gently.

Put 2 tablespoons of golden syrup, treacle or jam in bottom of microwave-safe bowl. Pour in batter.

Cover, and cook for 3 1/2 minutes on full powder, or until the pudding appears set when gently jiggled, and the top is sticky. Serve hot.

Thanks to bernie17 back in 2009 for being the only person to say what power microwave they are using with this recipe as it doesn't actually say anywhere else! I'm going to give this a go tomorrow after so many positive responses and suggestions!

Totally Fab recipe. Easy to make in no time at all. The kids loved it. Will definitely make again . I didn't have enough caster sugar so used half and half caster sugar and light brown suger. It came out lovely. I doubled up as it was for 7 of us
