Baked chocolate dessert

 Delicious baked chocolate recipe.

This recipe dates from the late nineteen seventies and I’ve reproduced it here just as it was originally given. I rarely cook with salt though and find that I don’t need it in this delicious, chocolate-y recipe. It’s easy to make and I like to serve it in individual glasses or ramekins.

The originator of the recipe suggests serving it with whipped cream but I find that a little rich for today’s tastes. It’s lovely served topped with fresh fruits instead. It’s a good idea to have a selection of fruit prepared and garnished with mint leaves then your guests or family can help themselves to whichever they please.

And this is a celebrity recipe – it comes from the kitchen of Nancy Kulp – the hilarious ‘Miss Jane’ from the TV show The Beverly Hillbillies.
