Self Saucing Chocolate Pudding

A recipe my mum gave me when I left home which I rediscovered over the weekend. Not sure of its origin - possibly Edmonds Cookbook - but a good, quick microwave pudding that my kids love. Great on cold days.

Absolutely loved it! Although after reading a previous comment I only put it in my microwave for 5 minutes and it came out totally scrumptious - Absolutely the sauciest chocolate pudding I have ever had. A little dust of icing sugar and some Vanilla ice-cream - TO DIE FOR! Note After: I think the different problems people are having relate to the differences in their microwaves. Mine turns out like a big soft sponge with a thick slightly jelly type sauce. I don't add the coconut, only add 1/2 cup sugar and substitute cocoa for milo and it comes out beautiful each time.
