- Place the dark chocolate, butter, milk and sugar into a heavy-based pan then heat gently until the chocolate has melted.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl then stir until smooth.
- Whisk the eggs, vanilla extract, baking powder and cream of tartar into the dark chocolate bowl, until evenly combined.
- Gently fold in the ground almonds then divide the mixture evenly between the mugs.
- Bake in the centre of your oven for 20 minutes or until the surface is cooked but soft and fudge-like in the centre.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or clotted cream... and enjoy!
