8oz(235g) good quality white chocolatecoarsely chopped (I love Lindt)
½cup(120ml) double/heavy cream
¼cup(50g) caster/granulated sugar
1teaspoonvanilla extract
⅛teaspoonsalt
Instructions
Add the white chocolate to a large heat-proof bowl, and set aside.
Add the cream, sugar, salt, and vanilla to a microwave-safe bowl or jug, and heat on high for 30 seconds (800W). Stir to combine the sugar into the cream, then heat for a further 30 seconds.
Pour the cream over the chocolate, and leave to stand for 1 minute. Whisk together until melted and smooth. If there are still some chocolate lumps left, heat for 30 seconds, then whisk again. The mixture should be slightly thick and silky smooth.
Evenly divide the pudding between three 4-oz ramekins, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until set.
Garnish with whipped cream and/or chocolate shavings before serving.
