My daughter passed this on to me, its a really scrummy pudding that is done in the slow cooker and when you serve it there is a scrummy chocolate sauce at the bottom

3-oz butter
¾ cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbsp cocoa powder
1 egg, beaten lightly
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 Tbsp cocoa powder, extra
2½ cup boiling water 

• Directions

  Grease 4½ -quart slow cooker bowl.

  Melt butter in milk over low heat in medium saucepan. Remove from heat; cool 5 minutes. Stir in extract and sugar, then sifted flour and cocoa, and egg. Spread mixture into cooker bowl.

  Sift brown sugar and extra cocoa evenly over mixture; gently pour boiling water evenly over mixture. Cook, covered, on high, about 2½ hours or until center is firm.

   Got a bit of crafting done today, when we had a refit in the shop last summer one of these MDF words got damaged so when I came across it the other day I thought I would decorate it and give it a second life as a sample in the shop, so here it is all glittered up ready to go on display.
