Chocolate Pudding Cake Recipe

Chocolate Pudding Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and place rack in center of oven. Butter, or spray with a non stick cooking spray, an 8 inch (20 cm) square baking dish.

Pudding Sauce: Stir the instant coffee into the boiling water. (Can use freshly brewed hot coffee.) In a separate bowl, stir together the white sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder.

Cake: In a bowl, sift the flour with the cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. In another large bowl, whisk the egg with the melted butter, sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir the flour mixture into the egg mixture until combined. Stir in the chopped walnuts. Spread the batter evenly onto the bottom of the prepared pan. Sprinkle the sugar/cocoa mixture evenly over the cake batter. Gently pour the coffee mixture over the cocoa mixture. Bake for about 25 minutes or until the cake is puffed and just beginning to pull away from the sides of the pan. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature, either plain or with vanilla or coffee flavored ice cream. Leftovers can be covered and stored in the refrigerator. Reheat in microwave.

Serves 8.
