Ingredients
- 150 grams All-purpose flour
- 25 grams Cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 75 grams Unsalted butter (melted)
- 175 milliliters Milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 300 milliliters Boiling water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a medium-sized, deep baking dish.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the granulated sugar.
Step 3
In another bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms.
Step 4
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and an extra 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder (not listed in the main ingredients). Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the baking dish.
Step 6
Carefully pour the boiling water over the top of the mixture in the dish. Do not stir; the water will sink in during baking to create a fudge sauce at the bottom.
Step 7
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes or until the sponge is set on top but still soft inside. The fudge sauce will form beneath the sponge layer.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Spoon the sponge and sauce into serving bowls and enjoy with whipped cream, ice cream, or simply as is.
