HOT FUDGE PUDDING CAKE

Hot Fudge Pudding Cake image

Mother would make this rich, fudgy dessert more than any other because it was my father's favorite. My husband, two children and I also love to eat the cake warm with ice cream. I work at our local post office and like helping at our kids' school.
