Brownie Pudding

 Would you like to join me for one of my all-time favorite desserts?  We are having some Brownie Pudding and some Black Forest Cupcake tea that a sweet friend sent to me, who knows how much I love it! 


 This teacup, named Petit Rose,  came from Stephanie's teacup exchange a couple of times ago.  Isn't it a sweet design?  


 My friend, Bea, gifted me with this pretty teapot.  I love mixing and matching patterns.



yield: about 9 servings print recipe

Brownie Pudding

This recipe comes from my vintage Better Homes and Gardens Dessert Cookbook that I started using as a bride in the 1970's. I have to say that it is one of my all-time favorite desserts, and came about before chocolate molten or lava cakes were popular. This dessert is all about cozy comfort foods! I hope you try it.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup sifted flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3/4-1 cup chopped walnuts, optional
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 and 3/4 cups hot water

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Sift together the first five ingredients into a medium size bowl.
  2. Add milk, oil, and vanilla; mix smooth. Add nuts, if using. Pour into a greased 8x8x2" pan.
  3. Mix brown sugar and the 1/4 cup cocoa powder; sprinkle over batter.
  4. Pour hot water over entire batter. Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. The sauce will be on the bottom and the brownie part will be on the top.  Let for for a bit before serving, as the sauce will thicken up some. 
  5. Scoop the brownie part and spoon the sauce over top into bowls. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream and enjoy!

I recently started crocheting these cute bears from the book,  Magical Amigurumi Toys, which can be found on Amazon.  They're a fun project and make perfect gifts.

I am sharing this with these lovely parties:

  1. I am intrigued by Black Forest Cupcake tea!! Sounds delicious! I might add your Brownie pudding looks a treat as well. What a pretty teapot. The mixing and matching of teacups and teapots is fun isn't it. What sweet little bears; how clever of you to have crocheted them.

  9. It never occurred to me to combine brownies with pudding. YUM!!! Your decadent brownie pudding is right up this chocoholic's alley. I'm sure that the black forest tea tastes much better in your pretty teacup.

  30. WOW! How I LOVE this recipe! I just read a similar recipe not 30 minutes ago....so this one caught my attention for sure. Everything is lovely. I sure would love to enjoy this scrumptious dessert sitting next to you. XO

  31. I think I have either the same recipe or one very similar in my Fry's Cocoa Cookbok. They call it a Self-Saucing Pudding, but we always called it Mocha Pudding as I use coffee instead of hot water. It's a favourite with my family too! Love the teacups you have chosen, and the tiny crocheted bears are so cute ;)

  32. I think I may have made this pudding before, maybe it was called radio pudding (I have no clue why? lol!) But it is surely delicious and reminded me that I haven't made it in a while! Now, I'm hungry for my chocolate fix, lol! And those darling bears that you are crocheting are soo cute!!!!!

  33. Oh that brownie pudding looks so good -- and I just happen to have all the ingredients. Hmm . . . Sure would taste good on a cold and cloudy winter's day like today!
    I love that teacup! So feminine. And your angels, love.
    Wow -- those crocheted bears are adorable!! Great job Kitty! Yes, those will make wonderful gifts! xo Deborah

  34. Kitty,
    Your brownie pudding dessert looks pretty delicious!!! But I do not have any of that tea!!! Is it a tea bag or loose leaf? I will have to look for some. I love the tea cup and tea pot. I was telling my mom the other day about you, your blog and how you have a different tea cup and tea pot for each post!!! LOL! Your crocheted bears are so very cute! I would like to develop those skills! But I am really terrible at it! Hope all is well with you Kitty! xo

  37. Mouth watering! Reminds me a bit of the chocolate pudding cakes that you pour hot water over and it makes a lovely pudding to accompany the cake.
