Chocolate Brownie Pudding: A Vintage Magic Dessert

Hi, I'm Sarah Ait dahan, and I'm thrilled to share this nostalgic Chocolate Brownie Pudding recipe with you. Also known as "Hot Fudge Pudding Cake" or "Chocolate Cobbler," this dessert is pure magic. You pour boiling water over the batter, and as it bakes, it creates a rich, gooey chocolate sauce underneath a tender brownie-like cake. It's warm, comforting, and absolutely irresistible with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Make the Brownie Batter

In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir until you have a thick, glossy chocolate batter.

Step 2: Spread in Pan

Pour the batter into a greased 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across the bottom.

Step 3: Add the Topping

Mix together brown sugar and cocoa powder. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter. Don't stir it in—just let it sit on top!

Step 4: Pour Boiling Water

Here's the magic: carefully pour boiling water over the entire surface. Do NOT stir. The water will look like it's ruining everything, but trust the process!

Sarah's Baking Tips

• Serve Warm: This dessert is best enjoyed fresh from the oven when the sauce is hot and bubbly.
• Ice Cream is Essential: The cold vanilla ice cream against the warm pudding is perfection.
• Don't Overbake: The center should still jiggle slightly when you remove it from the oven.
