Chocolate Pudding Cake Recipe
Categories: Puddings, Cakes/Frost
Yield: 1 servings
Ingredients:
1 cup shifted flour
7 tbsp cocoa
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup Sugar
3/4 cup Walnuts or Pecans, chopped
1/4 cup Salad Oil
1/2 cup Warm Water
2 tsp Vanilla
2 cup Warm Water (additional)
Direction:
- To start, gather your ingredients: all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients—flour, cocoa powder, sugar,nut, baking powder, and salt.
