For making the top layer
Gooey Chocolate Pudding Cake
Ingredients Needed
For the pudding:
All purpose flour - 1 cup
Sugar, powdered - 3/4 cup
Cocoa powder - 2 tsp
Baking powder - 1 tsp
Salt a pinch
Milk 1/4 cup
Butter, melted unsalted - 2 tsp
Chocolate essence few drops
For the Topping:
Sugar, powdered - 1/4 cup
Brown sugar 1/4 cup
Cocoa powder - 2 tsp
Hot water 1 cup
Method
For the Pudding:
Preheat oven to 185 degrees C.
Sieve all purpose flour, cocoa powder and baking powder in a bowl. Add the powdered sugar, salt to the same and mix well.
Add milk, butter and chocolate essence gradually in the bowl & whisk well till all is incorporated. It will be thicker than usual cake batter.
Spread the batter in a glass baking bowl / a greased pan.
For making the topping:
In a bowl, whisk brown sugar, sugar and cocoa powder, add hot water to it. Mix well.
Pour this liquid on the batter, making sure not to disturb the batter, let the topping just be there.
Bake for 40 minutes at 185 C and 5 -6 mins at 175 C
The top will set and you will see a brownie like crust which is very crispy
Take it out and let it cool.
Serve with whipped cream or ice cream. This can also be served hot.
Notes:
This takes all of 40 mins, though I baked first for 20 mins, then did for 10 mins in the interval.
If you want an individual serving, you can do that as it's easy to manage and serve. This way the gooey chocolate sauce will be all over, with the top very crispy.
