Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Packed brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder (for topping)
- 1 cup Hot brewed coffee
- Whipped cream or ice cream (optional for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until combined and smooth. The batter will be thick.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and 1/4 cup of cocoa powder for the topping. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the dish.
Carefully pour the hot brewed coffee over the top. Do not stir. The liquid will remain on top, but it will sink during baking to create the pudding layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top looks set and puffed (the cake layer). The pudding layer will remain underneath.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the pudding to thicken slightly.
Serve warm with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired. Enjoy the gooey chocolate coffee goodness!
