Mom's Chocolate-Chocolate Pudding Cake
This pudding when baked has a chocolate sauce on bottom and cake on top.
I love most anything chocolate and mother used to make this dessert with some regularity when the oven was on for baking in the winter. A few years ago I found the printed recipe glued to a card in an old recipe box of hers, however it has no reference. I do not know where it came from.
2 tablespoons melted margarine
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sifted flour
8 tablespoons cocoa (unsweetened powder)
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 2/3 cups boiling water
Mix margarine, 1/2 cup sugar and vanilla together. Sift flour, 3 tablespoons cocoa, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt together and add alternately with milk to first mixture; mix well and stir in nuts. Mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 5 tablespoons cocoa, 1/4 teaspoon salt and boiling water. Pour into 10x6x2 inch baking pan and drop batter by tablespoons on top. Bake in 350degree oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm. Spoon out a portion of the cake and cover with sauce.
