MOCHA FONDANT PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Butter 6 small metal moulds, the type used for sticky toffee puddings. (You can line the bottoms with a circle of parchment to prevent sticking). In a warmed small cup, dissolve the coffee granules in 1 tbsp boiling water. Leave to cool.
• Break up the chocolate by bashing the foil packet with a rolling pin - and melt with the butter.
