How to make chocolate pudding cake

To get started, preheat your oven to 350F (180C) and grease a 2 quart (2l) casserole dish or 8-9 inch (20-23cm) square pan with butter. In a bowl, sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, instant coffee powder, and baking powder. Then, add in milk, melted butter or vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, whisking the ingredients together until they’re well combined.

Next, pour the batter into your prepared baking dish. In a separate small bowl, whisk together both sugars with cocoa powder. Sprinkle the mixture on top of the batter, then pour hot water over the top – but be sure not to stir!

Pop your Chocolate Pudding Cake into the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is set. Once it’s done, let it cool for 15 minutes before serving.

To serve, spoon the cake into serving dishes and drizzle with the pudding sauce from the bottom of the pan. For an extra special treat, add a scoop of your favorite ice cream and some fresh raspberries. Then, sit back and enjoy the deliciousness of your homemade Chocolate Pudding Cake!
