Chocolate Pudding Cake

A few weeks ago, I was really craving a chocolately dessert to make for Mackenzie and I. I didn't have any chocolate chips or baking chocolate but did have cocoa powder and I wanted to find a recipe that worked for what I had in our house. So, I searched the internet, went to a website that I frequent, All Recipes, and found the perfect one!

Here's the recipe courtesy of All Recipes! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/2 cups boiling water

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. In an ungreased 9 inch square pan, stir together flour, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix in milk, oil, and vanilla, with a fork until smooth. Spread batter evenly in pan (batter will be thick). Sprinkle with brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder. Pour boiling water over the batter.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes, then spoon into dessert dishes or cut into squares. Invert each square onto dessert plate, then spoon sauce over each serving (makes it's own sauce while cooking). Top with ice cream or whipped topping, if desired.

Enjoy!

I'll be working today and then this evening, we'll be spending the night with Mackenzie's parents! Mackenzie will be leaving early to go fishing with his dad on Saturday and Sharon and I will be hosting a tea at her house! It'll be a busy, yet fun weekend!
