Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 3 tablespoons butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.75 cups milk
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter (melted)
• 1.5 cups hot water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium-sized baking dish (about 8x8 inches) and set it aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gradually stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix. Set aside while you prepare the caramel sauce.

Step 5

In the greased baking dish, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix well to form the base of the caramel sauce.

Step 6

Pour the hot water over the sugar mixture in the baking dish and stir gently to combine. This will create the caramel sauce as it bakes.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the prepared dough evenly over the caramel base. The dough will create soft dumplings as it bakes.

Step 8

Bake the pudding in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden and cooked through.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5–10 minutes. Drizzle with vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.

Step 10

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, and enjoy!
