  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • Unsifted Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Unsweetened Cocoa

How to Make Almond Chocolate Pudding Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Position rack in the center.
  2. Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, 2/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon almond extract, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until just combined. The batter will be thick.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 2/3 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
  7. Sprinkle the cocoa mixture evenly over the batter.
  8. Carefully pour 1 cup of boiling water evenly over the top. Do not stir!
  9. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (it will not be completely clean). The top should be crisp and crackled.
  10. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
