Flourless Chocolate Puddings
Flourless chocolate puddings are an indulgent dessert made with dark chocolate, butter, double cream and eggs. The TM7 melts the chocolate gently without burning, whisks the eggs to a airy lightness and blends everything into a silky batter. Rich, molten and naturally gluten-free, these puddings are ideal for dinner parties.
About this recipe
Flourless Chocolate Puddings with the Thermomix TM7 are the ultimate answer when you are searching for a decadent dessert recipe that is naturally gluten-free yet tastes pure indulgence. Made with dark chocolate, unsalted butter, double cream, eggs and a touch of cocoa powder, these little puddings deliver a molten, fudgy centre under a delicate crust — a texture that is notoriously tricky to achieve with a saucepan and whisk. The all-in-one kitchen machine takes the guesswork out: chocolate melts under gentle heat control without seizing, eggs and yolks are whisked to a pale ribbons stage, and the batter blends into a silky, lump-free consistency in seconds. Serve them warm after a dinner party, dusted with cocoa or paired with softly whipped cream. Because there is no flour to fold in, the chocolate flavour stays front and centre, making this one of the most reliable festive dessert recipes in your TM7 repertoire.
Preparation tips
- Use good-quality dark chocolate with a high cocoa content for the deepest flavour; cheaper chocolate contains less cocoa butter and can make the pudding grainy rather than silky after baking.
- Let the melted chocolate and butter cool slightly before adding the eggs and yolks so they incorporate smoothly; too hot and you risk scrambling the mixture into a grainy batter.
- Serve the puddings slightly cooled with a light dusting of cocoa powder and a spoonful of softly whipped double cream — the contrast between warm fudgy centre and cool cream makes all the difference.
Recipe variations
- Lactose-free version: replace the unsalted butter with a plant-based baking margarine and swap the double cream for oat cream; the dark chocolate keeps the pudding rich and the texture stays wonderfully fudgy.
- Festive winter variation: add a pinch of ground cinnamon and a splash of orange zest to the batter, or a teaspoon of espresso powder to intensify the dark chocolate flavour for a Christmas dinner finale.
