School Dinners Chocolate Spongs With Chocolate Custard

This is from our school dinners set of videos we done a few years ago and I thought i'd update it and put it on our Butlers Empire channel. It was a favourite of many a child in the 60's and 70's when I was at school and this Chocolate Sponge with chocolate custard was a regular on the menu's of many a school dinner menu. I remember it fondly and hope you enjoy our version.

It would be a great idea, if you could put all your recipes into a book, i would be the first to buy.🥰

[@suec9938]

Me too!

[@glynisherridge4839]

I’ve never stoped laughing the faces Sharron you make at martin so funny unbelievable

[@denisereynolds2399]

I tell you what Sharon, you are an amazing cook, seriously every thing you bake looks so lovely. I loved the school dinners back in the day , and sponge with pink custard, treacle sponge, and custard and this chocolate cake were my favourite. My friend hated sponge and custard, but loved anything with currants in ( fly pie ) we called it. So on the days when sponge and custard was on, she’d get it and give it me, so then I’d have seconds because I would have my own, so that when anything like “fly pie” was being served, I’d get one and give it her so she’d have double hahaha. Loved this video, so funny throughout 😂😂😂. Your a marriage made in heaven ❤❤

[@butlersempire]

Thank you so much Denise

[@denisereynolds2399]

@@butlersempire I’m just watching the coconut sponge one with the raspberry blancmange . Like you, always thought it was pink custard😳😁. Another fab video. Sharons cooking, and your explanation a perfect combo 👌👍

[@ritac3784]

Yummy. We also used to get ice cream sometimes. A scoop of vanilla with warm chocolate custard on it. The ice cream would melt round the edges. Chocolate sponge, the thing of dreams

[@janetdelen2852]

This chocolate sponge looks amazing! Will most definitely be trying this one. It's hard to believe that are no eggs in this recipe. Love you both.

[@Pay2winps]

Love the school dinners desserts bring memories back thank you guys do the cornflake tart an custard they used to do

[@IndyIndie59]

I love this series ... more please.

[@suebrayton1554]

The best gravy I ever had was at Drove Rd cafeteria Swindon. Cooked my steak and onion today, trying steak pie cabbage and mash with by new bistro from Amazon tomorrow. Love my dual cosori cook bacon all the time, thank u guys.

[@davidjanicecoon2763]

I loved school dinners, these vlogs bring back so many memories.

[@davestatham812]

Fablulous, Martin and sharon, ooh ya cant beat school puddnins, dont forget chocolate brick puddin and green peppermint custard, it was like a really hard crumbly puddin and if you wearnt carefull it used to fly out of your bowl when cutting it with your spoon, wonderful stuff 🤪👍🏻

[@bobnorman1000]

Absolutely brilliant couldn't stop laughing at the end your a great pair keep the vids coming

[@angelgreer2470]

That looked delicious! Was my favourite at school 😃. Also loved Manchester Tart (Thick custard then jam on a pastry base) yummy. Just love your videos ❤🇬🇧

[@stephenkelly5642]

Boy that fetches memories back. Stop shouting at Sharon 😆 lol

[@edmywil]

I guess the schools there are different than in the states, I don't remember any food tasting or looking like that here. Also, I work in a school now and I know they don't now. They pretty much warm everything up and slap it on a storiform plate. Thanks for sharing.

[@mikeberry304]

Warm the choc cake in the microwave and serve with lovely ice cream 😂😂😂, cook it in a smaller tin in your ninja and save money 😂😂, you've made us all hungry now 👍🤣🤣

[@Mariak82]

Love this, chocolate sponge and chocolate custard is one of my favourites. ❤️🍫🍰 Love all these school dinners, I had these in the 80's/90's.

[@butlersempire]

So good!

[@STTC]

Absolutely brilliant, laughing all the way through the tasting, baby thinks I’m mad

[@managementmyqualitystore4509]

Chocolate pudding with chocolate custard used to be my favourite ever when I was in school in 2006. OMG, you lot are so so amazing honestly the Recipes so simple when you lot are doing. Honestly I am learning it much better than how I was in school you lot are brilliant amazing love you lot ever so much. And thank you very much for bringing those amazing memories back…

[@lesleyhawkes2983]

This was my favourite at school,

[@1Busman]

Loving these school dinners your misses (baby) is some cook 👍

[@heatherhaigh2155]

Thank you for another great video - my favourite pudding at school was gipsy tart 🙂

[@rolexvangucci]

Have you two had words x haha

[@bridgetdoman1386]

Although I normally take the easy way out and use chocolate muffins, I will endeavour to use this recipe. However, I use custard powder and add cocoa. Sharon, get a fan for your hot flushes. Of course you will still get them, but a cool fan nearby helps. I have a chocolate muffin left over so this has prompted me to make some chocolate custard.

[@shaineriches4369]

Hi martin amd sharon its shaine the one who sent you the clippers hope your all keeping well? I remember this at primary school and the pink custard and coconut sponge 🙂👌🏽 another one of my favourites is jam rolly poly with custard 👌🏽👌🏽 give love to everyone for me and obviously give the cute doggies a MASSIVE LOVE from me 🙏❤️💙

[@puffyjet]

Wow what can I say about that chocolate cake and custard we could almost taste it through the screen you can not beat homemade especially with a fantastic cook as Sharon thanks to the two of you A great cook and great entertainment and fantastic food. . Kevbo &Jckie , Jackie loves your hair and your apron Sharon,. PS we used to have cornflake cake and yellow custard in school although it was called a cake it was a pastry base with lemon curd spread on it the cornflakes aded on top of the lemon curd then the hot custard. Thanks for your time, K&J

[@butlersempire]

I used to love Lemon curd, Don't see it much these days.

[@maggiedoor6093]

Sharon I'm not a chocolate cake lover either, I have a husband and sons that love it though. I'm going to try making custard out of chocolate milk , I just have to thicken it.

[@dagenhamdave2611]

[@traceysallotment2506]

I know this is an old vid but binge watching 😂 anyway cornflake tart and custard i love.

[@stevev3664]

Shop bought custard powder is cornstarch. The yellow colour comes from yellow food colouring E102. That’s the stuff that makes kids hyperactive.

[@johnmichaelphilipguy-gibbe795]

yum yum ,thanks for the video, will have too try this myself.

[@arthurvasey]

Sharon’s a cruel cook - she beats the eggs, whips the cream and batters the fish!

[@deanwebb4809]

Favourite pudding at school that was. Also every used to moan about school mash I loved it always went for more

[@Phil-1969]

It’s nice to see you have taken the oven off the naughty step

[@alandykes2519]

Spot on again both of you 👍👍👍👍

[@francisraffle2948]

Mum used to put blancmange powder into cake mixture the chocolate turned a cake chocolate same with the strawberry and raspberry turned your cakes pink and lemon turned it yellow

[@butlersempire]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@traceydexter9365]

[@themowerman]

Cutting hot butter with a knife 🤣. Looks yummy mate.. is Sharon doing just eat orders lol

[@3002534]

Birds custard powder is eggless. Mr Birds wife didn’t like eggs so he invented a custard without eggs in!!(apparently)

[@steven907]

Have a nice time in Scotland , hope Tracey Ben and the kids are all well

[@craighorton6387]

1970's more like 1950's old lad

[@alienraider]

Like cutting hot butter with a knife❤

[@gerbutt]

Haha you too are well funny 😄 Great vid, keep them coming :)

[@BenRolfe]

Great vid both! Apparently you can cook cakes in the Air Fryers you have. Would be interesting to see a recipe for one and how it’s done.

[@bridgetdoman1386]

Depending on the air fryer, shape and size, I would suggest using half the quantity of ingredients, possibly even less than that, and invest in some muffin cases, silicone or metal. If the latter, don't forget to grease them first.

[@sandradent65]

I could just eat that

[@philipnewton7942]

Martin Sharon has her hands full with you mate that looked very nice I am not chocolate guy jackie she is a chocolate nut loves the stuff You pair make us laugh so much when sharon tells you of very funny great video loved my school dinners Phil and Jackie in stoke

[@elizabethhill8781]

Hi, this recipe looks so good. Is that 180 degrees for a fan oven? Thank you x

[@butlersempire]

Yes that's what we did.

[@JASONGOD850]

Mint custard at are school.

[@stevestocking333]

Love it but, we had mint custard. I've never found a decent recipe for it.

[@DiAllinson]

I'll bet you can make that with the cornflour the same, just substitute the cocoa for some peppermint essence and green food colouring

[@garycumberland5922]

looks lovely can you do cornflake tart?

[@darrenmeears3912]

Wow that cake looked proper gorge how about my personal favourite pineapple upside down cake YUM YUM 🍍🍰👌
