Chocolate pudding is a beloved dessert that combines the rich flavors of cocoa and brown sugar with a creamy texture that is irresistible. This recipe is simple to follow and can be made quickly with basic ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a medium-sized baking dish with a little bit of butter or spray it with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the self-raising flour and dry cocoa powder. Add the white sugar and stir until all dry ingredients are well combined.
- In another bowl, beat the egg lightly. Melt the 1/4 cup butter until smooth but not hot, and mix it with the milk. Add the beaten egg into this mixture, stirring well until fully combined.
- Gradually pour the wet mixture into the bowl with dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until no lumps remain and the batter is smooth.
- Sprinkle the 3/4 cup brown sugar evenly over the top of the batter in the baking dish.
- Carefully pour 1 cup of boiling water over the mixture. Do not stir. This will create a sauce-like layer at the bottom once baked.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is firm and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the pudding to cool slightly (about 10 minutes). Serve warm, scooping from the bottom to get both the sauce and cake. This pudding is great on its own or served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Tips:
- Make sure to sift the dry ingredients together to avoid lumps and ensure an even mixture.
- Use room temperature butter and egg for a smoother batter consistency.
- If you prefer a richer chocolate flavor, consider adding an extra tablespoon of cocoa powder.
- Once the pudding starts to thicken, stir constantly to prevent it from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- For an extra touch, garnish the pudding with whipped cream or chocolate shavings before serving.
By following these straightforward steps, you can whip up a delightful chocolate pudding that will satisfy any sweet tooth. Serve it warm for a cozy treat, or chill it in the fridge for a refreshing dessert. Either way, this pudding is sure to become a favorite in your household.
