Hot Fudge Pudding

I love this dessert, not only because it tastes amazing, but this recipe works like magic. As the pudding cooks, the velvety, delicious sauce on top, slowly seeps into the cake, and settles at the bottom. This is perfect for dinner parties. You can prepare the batter ahead of time, sprinkle the brown sugar and cocoa on top and just put it in the fridge. Just before you have to serve it, pour the boiling water and pop it into the oven! This recipe makes enough for a 9 inch dish or about 10 people. I have made half the recipe.

  1. flour 120 g
  2. sugar 120 g
