Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish and set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until fully combined and smooth.
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking dish using a spatula.
In a separate small bowl, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar (for topping), and cocoa powder (for topping). Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the baking dish.
Carefully pour the boiling water evenly over the entire mixture in the dish. Do not stir.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes or until the top is set and slightly cracked.
Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for 10-15 minutes. The cake will have a brownie-like top with a gooey pudding layer underneath.
Serve warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
