For chocolate lovers everywhere! The batter separates into 2 layers as it bakes...a soft pudding on bottom and a cake layer on top. Heaven!! Found this in Woman's Day.
Ingredients:
3/4 stick (6 t) unsalted butter
1 oz. semisweet baking chocolate, chopped
yolk from 1 large egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened dutch-process cocoa powder
2 tsps baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups milk
2 tsps vanilla extract
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 pt. vanilla ice cream
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350. You'll need a shallow 2-qt. baking dish.
2. Microwave butter and chocolate in a small bowl just until melted; stir with a whisk to combine, then stir in yolk until well blended.
3. Whisk flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup cocoa, the baking powder and salt in a medium bowl until blended. Stir in 1/2 cup milk, the butter mixture and vanilla until smooth. Spread batter in ungreased baking dish.
4. Mix remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, remaining 1/3 cup cocoa and the brown sugar in small bowl with fingers or a fork until blended. Sprinkle over batter.
5. Heat remaining 2 cups milk in microwave just until simmering. Slowly pour over mixture in baking dish-DON'T STIR.
6. Bake 45 minutes. Spoon into dessert bowls. Top each serving with a small scoop of ice cream. Serve immediately or pudding layer will be absorbed by cake layer.
