To get started on your Hot Fudge Chocolate Pudding Cake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is a crucial step as it ensures that your cake bakes evenly and achieves the perfect texture. While the oven is heating, prepare your baking pan. A square 9-inch baking dish is ideal for this recipe. Grease the pan lightly with butter or cooking spray and dust it with a bit of flour to prevent sticking. This preparation will make it easier to serve your cake later.

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.

      Stir in the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until blended. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.

        In a separate bowl, mix the brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder, then evenly sprinkle it over the batter.

          Carefully pour the hot water over the entire mixture in the pan—do not stir!

            Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the cake has risen and the top is set. It will create a fudgy layer on the bottom with a cake on top.

              Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with whipped cream or ice cream!
