Warm Brownie Pudding Cups

By

As a kid growing up in the 70′s, I remember begging my mom to make Jello® pudding all of the time. We were more likely to have Jello® gelatin (pudding’s less attractive sibling) for dessert, but that didn’t stop me from asking for butterscotch and chocolate pudding (my favorite flavors then). As a grown up with more sophisticated tastes, I created this recipe to have the satisfaction that only chocolate can deliver - along with the warmth of childhood memories.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 4 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • confectioners’ sugar for dusting

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350° F. Spray five 8-ounce ramekins with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. Place a large baking pan half full of water in the oven to get warm.

Step 2

In a medium heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, stir the semisweet chocolate and butter until almost melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, sift together twice the flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.

Step 4

In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs and vanilla until light and foamy. Add in sugar and beat until fluffy. Stir in the chocolate mixture, and then fold in dry ingredients.

Step 5

Pour the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling each nearly to the rim. Place the ramekins in the baking pan. The water should come halfway up the sides of ramekins.

Step 6

Bake for 30 minutes, or until the brownie pudding cups have risen to just above the rim and the tops are cracked. They should be firm to the touch. Let them cool for 5 minutes, and then dust with confectioners’ sugar. Serve the brownie pudding cups warm.
