Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the cake batter:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth batter.
If you’re using chopped nuts, fold them into the batter now.
Transfer the batter:
Pour the cake batter into a greased 9×9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized oven-safe dish.
Prepare the fudge topping:
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and additional cocoa powder.
Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the cake batter.
Add the hot water:
Carefully pour the hot water over the top of the cake (don’t stir!). The water will sink to the bottom and create a fudge sauce while the cake bakes.
Bake the cake:
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cake has risen and the top looks set, while the fudge sauce is bubbling underneath.
Serve:
Let it cool slightly before serving. The pudding cake is delicious served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
