Old School Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Custard ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿฐ | A School Pud Classic
Close your eyes and youโ€™re back in the school canteen: trays clattering, the faint whiff of gravy still lingering, and the unmistakable excitement as the dinner ladies wheel out the puddings. And there it is โ€” the chocolate cake. Moist, rich, and baked in huge trays, always sliced into generous squares, and never served without a jug of glossy chocolate custard ready to be poured over in rivers. It was the highlight of the day, the treat that made you forget the lumpy mash or overcooked veg that came before it.
This version is pure nostalgia โ€” simple, comforting, and guaranteed to make you smile. So tell me โ€” were you the type to flood your sponge with custard, or did you carefully dip each bite? ๐Ÿด๐Ÿ’ฌ

๐Ÿซ In a separate bowl, sift cocoa, flour, and salt.
๐Ÿฅ„ Fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture gradually, alternating with milk. Stir in vanilla until smooth.
๐Ÿง Pour into the prepared tin, smooth the top, and bake for 30โ€“35 minutes, until risen and springy. Test with a skewer.
โ„๏ธ Cool slightly in the tin before turning out onto a wire rack.
๐Ÿฎ For the custard: Mix cocoa, cornflour, sugar, and a little milk into a paste in a saucepan.
๐Ÿ”ฅ Slowly whisk in the rest of the milk. Heat gently, stirring, until thickened.
