Hot Chocolate Fudge Cake Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Fudge Topping:

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1 1/4 cups hot water

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
2. Prepare the Cake Batter:
   • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
   • In another bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
   • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter will be thick.
   • Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking pan.
3. Prepare the Fudge Topping:
   • In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder.
   • Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the baking pan.
4. Add the Hot Water:
   • Pour the hot water evenly over the top. Do not stir. The water will create a sauce as the cake bakes.
5. Bake:
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is firm. The cake will rise to the top, and a rich fudge sauce will form underneath.
6. Cool Slightly:
   • Let the cake cool for about 15 minutes. This allows the sauce to thicken slightly.
7. Serve:
   • Spoon the cake into serving bowls, making sure to get plenty of the fudge sauce from the bottom of the pan. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
