Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar (for topping)
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for topping)
- 1 cup boiling water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish lightly with butter or nonstick spray.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until a smooth batter forms.
Step 4
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup cocoa powder. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the dish.
Step 6
Carefully pour the boiling water over the entire surface of the cake batter. Do not stir; this will create the pudding layer during baking.
Step 7
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the top is set and the edges are bubbling slightly.
Step 8
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. The cake will have a soft, fudgy pudding underneath.
Step 9
Serve warm, spooning the pudding sauce from the bottom of the dish over each piece. Pair with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
