Dad will love this on Father's Day night. This recipe is another contribution from Grandma Law (see her fruit cake recipe opposite) and is so easy.
1 cup flour 2 tsp baking powder ½ tsp salt ½ cup sugar ¼ cup cocoa 75g melted butter 1 cup milk 1 tsp vanilla essence For the topping 2 cups brown sugar ¼cup cocoa 2 cups boiling water
1 Preheat oven to 180C.
2 Sift flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and cocoa into a mixing bowl.
3 Add butter, milk and vanilla and mix well. Pour into a deep, buttered, 20cm round ovenproof dish.
4 Combine brown sugar and cocoa and sprinkle over pudding. Pour over boiling water and bake for 40 minutes. Don't worry if it looks like a mess, it will be fine, and tastes delicious.
You can easily halve the sauce recipe, but who doesn't like lots of chocolate sauce?
