Ingredients

50 g	butter, plus extra for greasing
	cocoa powder, 70% cocoa solids, for dusting
150 g	plain chocolate, broken into pieces
2	egg yolks
3 tbsp	plain flour
1 tbsp	golden caster sugar
25 g	mixed macadamia & brazil nuts, finely chopped
	For the Nut Brittle:
100 g	granulated sugar
50 g	mixed macadamia & brazil nuts, chopped

Instructions

First make the nut brittle: Melt sugar in a heavy-based pan until a rich, deep golden caramel is obtained. Quickly add the nuts and pour onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment or a silicone tray.

Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C Fan/Gas 7. Butter two individual pudding basins or cups and dust with cocoa. Melt butter with chocolate. Stir in the egg yolks, sift in the flour and fold in the sugar and nuts with a pinch of salt. Spoon into the basins and bake in the oven for about 15 minutes. The fondants should be cooked on the outside, yet molten in the middle.

Allow the fondants to cool a little, then turn out onto serving plates. Serve with homemade ice cream and shards of nut brittle.
