Chocolate Pudding Cake

I might have eaten dessert first for dinner tonight, and it just might have been this gooey Chocolate Pudding Cake. It is #chocotoberfest after all! This week I’ve partnered with a group of awesome food bloggers to bring our readers an abundance of delicious CHOCOLATE recipes — you’ll definitely want to check out all the other yumminess at the bottom of this post — and to offer you an opportunity to win a chocolate prize pack worth $350! I tell you, I’ve been in chocolate heaven this week!

What I love about this Chocolate Pudding Cake is that it doesn’t require any special ingredients or extra trips to the grocery store, and as it bakes it creates a gooey chocolate topping (in the bottom of the pan). You don’t even need a mixer for this cake — it comes together in just three simple steps. All you need for this dessert is flour, sugar, cocoa, milk, oil, vanilla, nuts (optional), and boiling water — all staples in most pantries. I used Imperial Sugar (a trusted name in kitchens since 1843 and our #Chocotoberfest Gold Sponsor) in my recipe. Their sugar products and sweeteners are made from non-GMO cane sugar and ensure consistently delicious results.

Chocolate Pudding Cake is basically like a cobbler and can be served warm or cold. I like it best warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream — it tastes a lot like hot fudge cake! Enjoy, friends!
