CAKE: Pudding Cake
Submitted by beachdee on July 03, 2004 at 11:35 pm

1 cup flour
1 cup sugar divided into 2/3 cup and 1/3 cup
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa, + 2 Tblsp.
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt (slightly heaping teaspoon)
1/2 cup milk (I use skim)
3 Tablsp vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup boiling water

Combine flour, 2/3 cup sugar, 1/4 cup cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and stir well.

Combine milk, oil, and vanilla in a bowl, then add to the dry ingredients, and stir well.

Spoon the batter into a greased (or sprayed with cooking spray) 8-inch square baking dish.

Mix together the remaining 1/3 cup of sugar and the 2 Tblsp. of cocoa, and sprinkle over the batter.

Pour the 1 cup of boiling water carefully over the batter, but do not stir. Bake at 350F for 30 min. or until cake springs back when lightly touched in the center. Serve warm with ice cream, whipped topping, whipped cream--your choice.

(OPTIONS: add 1 1/2 Tblsp. instant coffee granules to the dry ingredients to make this a mocha pudding cake.

Add chopped nuts if desired.

Also, I like to throw in about 1/4 cup oat bran and reduce the flour slightly)

Spread the word
