The June 2009
Recipe of the Month
Chocolate Molten Pudding Cake
Here is an easy pudding cake (cake on top, molten chocolate on the bottom) that does not need to use a
water bath for baking. It works well as an easy-to-mix-in-the-pan type cake, uses no eggs, and creates a
luscious layer of chocolate. It’s fun and easy to make, and tastes delicious!! Do not worry about the large
amount of unsweetened cocoa, the pudding cake turns out very well indeed! We thank Kathy D. for this great
kick-off the summer submission.

and the chocolate chips/chopped chocolate over the
top of the mixture in the pan. Do not stir.

and cocoa in the pan. Do not stir this!!!
- Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes
until surface appears dry…do not over bake.

This cake just calls out for vanilla ice cream or a
tall glass of milk. Or invite friends to an elegant afternoon tea.
Enjoy!
