Pudding Cake

When the hubbie and I were dating I asked him if there was something that his mom made that he really liked. I was feeling crafty and wanted to impress him. He said it was his mom's pudding cake. So I called her and I got the recipe. That was 8 years ago and it's still just as good now as it was then.
It's really good and I have to warn you, it's RICH!!!

Pudding Cake

The cake:
1 C flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 C sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 C milk
1 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp shortening (melted)

Pudding:
3/4 C sugar
1/4 C baking cocoa

Mix ingredients for cake together and put in a greased 8X8 pan.

Then mix pudding ingredients and sprinkle on top.

Pour 1 3/4 C boiling water over mixture DO NOT STIR

Put into preheated 350 degree oven for 40 minutes.


This is best served warm right out of the oven topped with whipped cream. It is just as good the next day, but it's really good all steamy and warm with all of it's chocolaty goodness!!
Like I said, a little goes a long way! Enjoy!

HAPPY EATING!!!!!!!
