Molotoff Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Before beginning the meringue: Bring the 5-6 cups of water to a rolling boil.
• Using the 2 cups of caramel sauce, grease a tube pan.
• To prepare the meringue: Beat the 12 egg whites on high until they start forming peaks.
• Add the 12 tablespoons sugar and 4 tablespoons of caramel sauce to the egg whites and continue beating the mixture until they form very firm peaks.
• (You will know that it is good enough when you turn your bowl upside down and the mixture is stiff enough not to move!) In an aluminum foil roaster (or any roaster you may have at home) place the boiling water, covering the entire bottom.
• Place the meringue into the caramel-greased tube pan.
• Make sure that no air pockets form when placing the meringue in the pan. Make sure it is well packed.
• Place the tube pan inside the roaster over the boiling water and place it in your oven.
• Bake 20-30 minutes at a low setting, or until the top turns slightly brown.
• Special Notes: Previously warming the oven may cause the meringue to brown quicker than it's cooking time.
• Before removing the meringue from the pan, pass a knife along the sides so it may unstick. Because you are using caramel sauce for the meringue, most of the times it is very stuck to the pan. Unfortunately, this is one of the trickiest parts of the recipe. You may use a little butter to grease the pan before greasing with the caramel sauce, but it doesn't turn out as good as using only the caramel sauce.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Whip the egg whites until they are very stiff and firm.
• Add the cornstarch very slowly, always continuing to whip.
• Put the sugar in a pan and heat until it becomes golden.
• Add it, while hot, to the whipped whites, to give them colour.
• Heat the oven-- no temperature is given in the book but judging from other Molotoff recipes I've seen I would set it at a low heat.
• Meanwhile, prepare a pan with boiling water that is big enough to fit your cake tin in, to cook the pudding in a warm water bath.
• With butter, grease a tube or bundt pan.
• Put in the whipped whites, smooth the surface and place in the oven, in the bain-marie pan, to cook for 7 minutes.
• Watch that it doesn't become too brown.
• Turn off the oven and leave the pudding inside.
• Allow to cool for 15 minutes with the oven door open or shut, depending on the colour of the pudding, which should never be darker than light brown.
• Meanwhile, make the egg-sweet, boiling the sugar with the water until it forms a thick syrup.
• Remove from the heat and when cool add the egg yolks, beaten with the cornstarch and a few drops of lemon juice.
• Let it boil up again and if too thick add a little more water.
• Very carefully, remove the pudding from the tin.
• Place in a deep dish, cover with the egg sauce and decorate with the roasted almonds.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Butter 2 (8-ounce) ovenproof ramekins, and then dust them with cocoa powder, shaking off any excess.
• Melt the chocolate and butter together in a bowl over a pan of gently simmering water. While the chocolate is melting, use an electric whisk or a hand held mixer to beat together the eggs and sugar until pale and thick. Pour the melted chocolate into the egg mixture and gently fold in the flour. Spoon the pudding into the ramekins and bake for 10 minutes.
• Serve the puddings in either the ramekins or turned out onto serving plates. Dust the puddings with cocoa powder and garnish with a dollop of creme fraiche.
