HOT FUDGE PUDDING CAKE: PUDDING ON THE BOTTOM



Hot Fudge Pudding Cake: Pudding on the Bottom image

Yes, this old cake recipe makes its own pudding on the bottom as it bakes. Grandma and Mom made it, especially on Sunday nights in the 1950s. Its so good with ice cream or whipped cream.

Provided by Kathie Carr

Categories     Puddings

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 c sugar
1 c flour
1/4 c cocoa
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 c milk
1/3 c butter, melted
2 tsp vanilla
TOPPING:
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 c cocoa
1 1/4 c very hot water

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. For the cake: Whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Whisk in the milk, butter and vanilla. Stir together until smooth with a wooden spoon or spatula. Pour the batter into an ungreased 9-inch square baking pan. Use a spatula to level batter into pan.
  • 2. For the topping: Stir together the sugars and cocoa and sprinkle it evenly over the batter. Pour the hot water carefully over the top so that you don't move batter from covering the bottom of the pan. DO NOT stir topping into the batter. Bake about 30 minutes, you want the center to bubble and look almost set, almost like an undercooked brownie. Take out of the oven and let stand 15 minutes. Serve in dessert dishes, spooning sauce from bottom of pan over top. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips or semisweet chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate chips.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool for at least 5 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.
  • Serve the cake warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Hot fudge pudding cake is a delicious and easy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is moist and chocolatey, with a gooey fudge center. The cake is also very versatile and can be served warm or cold, with or without ice cream or whipped cream. If you are looking for a classic dessert that everyone will love, hot fudge pudding cake is the perfect choice.
