1 | Cream the eggs and sugar together in a large mixing bowl until pale and fluffy. |
2 | Sift in the cake flour and baking powder. Mix well with a wooden spoon until the batter is smooth. |
3 | In a separate small bowl, mix together the melted butter, vinegar and milk. |
4 | Add to the wet mixture and incorporate well. |
5 | Grease 2 cast iron pots with non-stick cooking spray or butter. Fill the little pots until ¾ full and place in a preheated oven of 180° C for 15 – 20 minutes, or until starting to brown. |
6 | Turn the temperature down to 160° C and cook for a further 20 minutes, or a wooden skewer comes out clean. |
7 | Melt all the ingredients for the syrup together in small pot over low heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. |
8 | As soon as the puddings come from the oven, cover the top of the malva with a generous amount of Amarula syrup. Allow to soak in for 5 minutes. Should you have any syrup remaining, repeat this step. |
9 | Serve with lashings of warm custard and pouring cream. |
