Ingredients
For the Batter
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- ½ cup white granulated sugar
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup milk
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
For the sauce
- ¾ cup light brown sugar
- 4 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1¼ cup boiling water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square baking pan, or an 8 cup / 2 quart size baking dish. Pre-boil the water for the sauce.
- FOR THE CAKE:
- Combine flour, baking powder, salt, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/4 cup cocoa.In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, milk and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth and lump free.
- Pour the batter into prepared baking pan or dish and spread evenly.
- FOR THE SAUCE:
- Combine the brown sugar, and remaining 4 tablespoons of cocoa. Sprinkle evenly overtop of the cake batter.Pour the boiling water over the batter, but do not mix.Note: allow the liquid to sit on top of the batter, it does not need to be mixed in. As the pudding cake bakes the liquid will form the fudge sauce.
- Bake 35 minutes or until the centre is almost set. Remove from oven. Allow to cool for 15 minutes.
- Serve a scoop of the cake with some of the fudge sauce spooned over top. Delicious on it's own, or with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
