Gluten free, these easy peasy chocolate pots are made with no flour. The caramel sauce is worth making yourself if you have the time. If you don’t there are lots of salted caramel sauces available in supermarkets. For the salted caramel For the chocolate cups Wine+ Wow! This dessert is so sumptuous that most wines won’t hold their own against it. You need something fortified and luscious. Head to France for a sweet, red wine, Domaine Pouderoux Maury Grande Reserve (Waitrose Cellar £11.49).
