Interesting as I did not have that problem. I actually ready this recipe this past Sunday as we had guests for the football games and doubled the recipe. I too was using 1 cup bowls and made exactly 8 of them. I was re-reading the recipe and the ONLY thing I can come up with may be the eggs. I used normal size eggs and I made sure JUST to lightly beat them as the recipe says. Did you did normal or extra large eggs and did you just lightly beat them? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it. And in terms of retrying them, Tina, PLEASE do, as you will be happy with the outcome. Actually one of the guests this past Sunday is pregnant as her comments were: "This is exactly what I needed, thank you!" hmmm. Interesting as I did not have that problem.

Could not use all of the topping and as far as the boiling water, forget it. They are in the oven overflowing as I type this. Don't know how if I'll try again but the 1 cup capacity is misleading.

I am just now going into the kitchen to make them! I can't wait to try the first taste. I know they will be great. Thanks, Sofia. I am just now going into the kitchen to make them!

Used taller soup mugs and they worked out fine. I placed filled mugs on baking sheet. Sheet wasn't preheated, just the oven. Which brown sugar did everyone use, light brown or dark brown? I used dark and will try it again with light. Prepared them this afternoon. Used taller soup mugs and they worked out fine. I placed filled mugs on baking sheet.

I did put the four bowls on top of a oven tray and did not have that warmed up first. I was to scared to let them fall on way in or out of oven. I did add 1/4 cup water to each cup. karen, the questions you had were same as mine at the time we were making. I did put the four bowls on top of a oven tray and did not have that warmed up first.

Do I place the cups (or flower pots or whatever) on a baking sheet to slide these into the oven? 2. If #1 is yes, do I also preheat the baking sheet? 3. Am I pouring 1/4 cup of the hot water on each of the individual puddings? Since I am known to spill things, I would be better off measuring it out before just trying to "eyeball" the amount of water. Thanks for any help here! Sofia it sounds as if you did it just right! Karen Don’t want to be caught asking the proverbial “dumb question” but I actually have two or three!

They look sinfully delicious. These look so yummy that I am going to go out to the pantry and see if I have everything to make them for dessert tonight. They look sinfully delicious.

If you're ever in Sydney, please have brekky at Bill's in Darlinghurst. Hopefully you catch the servers on a good day; they can be less-than-ideal which is my one and only complaint about Bill's. Go crazy, and order three things: the scrambled eggs (best in the world according to the <em>NY TIMES</em> reviewer), the sweetcorn cakes (my personal favourite), and the ricotta hotcakes (everyone else's favorite). All those recipes are in his book <em>Sydney Food,</em> which has a new edition out. I live in Boston now but still order Australian cookbooks. You just can't beat the simplicity of them. Bill Granger, Donna Hay, Stephanie Alexander, and Maggie Beer are tops. These puddings are delicious, but what Bill really exceeds at is breakfast.

WOW... My tween daughter and her friend compared it to a blend of chocolate mousse with moist brownie yet the warmth of a hot chocolate. I will be making these ones often when we have small gatherings as I believe this is a winner. We JUST finished dinner and had these for dessert.
