Hot Fudge Pudding Cake

Hot Fudge Pudding Cake

We were invited to dinner on Labor Day. It was wonderful!

My friend grilled Salmon and Teriyaki Pork Chops and served both with a fresh mango salsa. She grilled potatoes then added bacon and cheese (our son loved them!). She also served grilled squash basted with olive oil and garlic and steamed cauliflower. We were spoiled! Dinner was delicious.

I provided dessert and since I was in need of some chocolate, I decided to make Hot Fudge Pudding Cake, a recipe I found quite some time ago on Hershey’s Kitchen.

Here is the recipe for this rich, chocolate dessert:

1 ¼ cup sugar, divided
1 cup flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa
2 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
½ cup milk
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 ½ tsp vanilla
½ cup packed light brown sugar
1 ¼ cups hot water

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine ¾ cup sugar, flour and ¼ cup cocoa, baking powder and salt.



Stir in milk, butter and vanilla. Beat until smooth.



Spread batter into an ungreased 9 in square dish.



Stir together ½ cup sugar, brown sugar and ¼ cup cocoa. Sprinkle mixture evenly over batter.



Pour hot water over top. Do not stir.



Bake 35-40 minutes or until center is almost set. Remove from oven and let stand 15 minutes.



Serve with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.


Enjoy!!!

  1. Darlene, I made this very recipe the other day at my mother's 90th birthday party. One of my granddaughters can't have eggs, so this was the perfect solution. I, too, served it with ice cream! YUMMY!! If anyone has not made this, go for it. It's delish!!!
