From Grandma's Recipe Box: Hot Fudge Pudding Cake. If you're looking for a dessert that’s simple to make but decadent enough to impress, this is the one. It’s got the perfect balance of cake-like top and molten fudge beneath, making it the ultimate indulgence.
What Is Hot Fudge Pudding Cake?
Imagine a cake that bakes with a magic trick. You mix up the batter, pour it into a dish, and then top it with a simple sugar-and-cocoa powder mixture. As it bakes, the cake rises on top while a fudgy, chocolate sauce forms underneath. The result? A dessert that’s part cake, part pudding, and totally irresistible.
This cake is perfect when you want something warm, rich, and chocolatey without needing to spend hours in the kitchen. It’s essentially a one-bowl wonder that anyone can make, even if you’re a beginner baker.
Why You’ll Love This Cake:
So easy to make: It doesn’t require any special equipment or hard-to-find ingredients.
Fudgy goodness: The cake and sauce form separately, so you get the best of both worlds—a fluffy, soft top with a decadent, warm chocolate sauce at the bottom.
Customizable: Feel free to add a handful of chocolate chips to the batter for an extra-chocolatey bite. You can also sprinkle some chopped nuts or a dash of cinnamon on top before baking for a twist.
Tips and Tricks:
Serve it warm: This dessert is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven when the fudge sauce is still hot and gooey. The texture is unbeatable that way.
Don’t overbake: If you leave it in the oven too long, the fudge sauce will thicken, and you’ll lose that perfect pudding-like texture. Keep an eye on it.
Leftovers? If you have any (which I doubt!), you can store the cake in the fridge for a few days. Just warm it up in the microwave before serving.
