Cream the sugar and butter together until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the eggs and the mix well. Fold in the flour and then stir in the milk.

Grease 6 dariole moulds. Pour the mixture into the moulds leaving 1/2inch/1cm gap to allow the sponge to rise. Then place in a baking tray. Pour hot water into the baking tray to about half way up the moulds.

Place in the oven and cook for 25-30 minutes. They should be risen and golden and should not mark if a skewer is inserted.

Meanwhile place the jam in a saucepan and allow to become liquid.

When the puddings are cooked tip onto a serving plate and pour over the jam.
