When I first saw this recipe on Bake or Break I just knew I wanted to make it. I mean who wouldn't want some ooey gooey chocolately goodness?
The best thing about this recipe is IT'S EASY! So simple to do, with just a few ingredients, but wow, what it delivers is something like a molten lava cake meets brownie and fudge sauce.
Decadent, delicious, tantalizing and amazing ... yep! It's all of those things and more.
RECIPE
Ingredients
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar, divided
1 cup all-purpose flour
7 tbsp cocoa, divided
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 cups hot water
Method
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir together 3/4 cup sugar, flour, 3 tablespoons cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk, butter, and vanilla, mixing until smooth. Pour into an ungreased 8-inch square glass baking pan.
In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup sugar, brown sugar, and 4 tablespoons cocoa. Sprinkle evenly over the batter. Pour hot water over the top. Do not stir.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is almost set. Let stand for 15 minutes, then serve. Use the chocolate sauce in the bottom of the pan to spoon over servings. Garnish, if desired, with ice cream or whipped cream.
