Hot Fudge Chocolate Pudding Cake 🍫🍨
Ingredients:
🌾 1 cup all-purpose flour
🍬 2/3 cup sugar
🍫 1/4 cup cocoa powder
🧁 2 tsp baking powder
🧂 1/4 tsp salt
🥛 1/2 cup milk
🧈 2 tbsp melted butter
🍦 1 tsp vanilla extract
🌰 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
🍯 3/4 cup brown sugar
🍫 1/4 cup cocoa powder
💦 1 3/4 cup hot water
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). 🏠🔥
Prepare the cake batter:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. 🌾🍬🍫
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth batter. 🥛🧈🍦
If you’re using chopped nuts, fold them into the batter now. 🌰🍪
Transfer the batter:
Pour the cake batter into a greased 9x9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized oven-safe dish. 🍰
Prepare the fudge topping:
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and additional cocoa powder. 🍯🍫
Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the cake batter. 🍚
Add the hot water:
Carefully pour the hot water over the top of the cake (don’t stir!). The water will sink to the bottom and create a fudge sauce while the cake bakes. 💦🍫
Bake the cake:
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cake has risen and the top looks set, while the fudge sauce is bubbling underneath. 🍰⏲️
Serve:
Let it cool slightly before serving. The pudding cake is delicious served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. 🍦🍰
Enjoy your decadent Hot Fudge Chocolate Pudding Cake! 😋🍫
