Fudge Pudding Cake

Pin It
This dessert is not for the faint of heart.


It is rich, I mean REALLY rich. We have dubbed this, "Molten Chocolate Madness." It has everything you could want.....gooey cake, and hot pudding/syrup. Serve it with *vanilla* ice cream, because this is almost more chocolate than can be safely eaten! I made this tonight....the first time in YEARS, and my youngest took a bite...looked at me....and ran to me, giving me a huge hug :-)



¾ c sugar
1 Tb butter, softened
½ c milk
1 c flour
2 Tb baking cocoa
1 t baking powder
¼ t salt
½ c chopped walnuts or pecans


½ c sugar
½ c packed brown sugar
¼ c baking cocoa
1 ¼ c boiling water

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl, beat sugar, butter and milk.




Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt; stir into sugar mixture. Add nuts. (or not, if you don't like them)





Pour into a greased, 9 inch square baking pan (or similarly sized pan).

For topping, combine sugars and cocoa...

....and sprinkle over the batter.



Pour water over all. DO NOT STIR.

CAREFULLY put this in the oven and bake it for 30 minutes....

Ooooooo..can you see what is happening in there?

What started out as batter on the bottom, topped with dry ingredients and boiling-hot water.....will gradually become cake on top and chocolatey liquid goodness on the bottom.

And after 30 minutes, you get......


Mmmmmm...

Cool 10 minutes before serving. Spoon some of the fudge sauce over each serving and ice cream. Enjoy!

And as if this wasn't enough, I made both the FPC, and Blackberry cobbler tonight.

My honey is so spoiled ;-)
