Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (first amount)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder (second amount)
- 2 cups hot water
Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). |
| 2 | In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, white sugar, first amount of cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. |
| 3 | Add in the milk and canola oil, then mix together with a spoon until well combined. |
| 4 | Scrape the batter into an 8-inch casserole dish that is fairly deep, spreading it out evenly. |
| 5 | In the same mixing bowl (no need to dirty another bowl), mix together the brown sugar and second amount of cocoa powder. |
| 6 | Carefully pour the hot water over the brown sugar and cocoa mixture, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. |
| 7 | Pour this mixture evenly over the batter in the casserole dish, but do not stir it in. |
| 8 | Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven, and bake the pudding cake, uncovered, for approximately 40 minutes, or until the batter has risen above the sauce and is firm to the touch. |
| 9 | Once baked, remove the pudding cake from the oven and let it cool slightly. |
| 10 | Serve the warm pudding cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of Cool Whip for an extra indulgent treat. |
Tips:
- For an extra decadent touch, try adding a handful of chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
- Don’t be tempted to stir the sauce into the batter before baking; allowing it to bake on top creates a deliciously gooey layer underneath the cake.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheated in the microwave for a quick and delicious dessert option.
