How to Make Baked Fudge Dessert
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 1 ½ quart casserole dish.
- In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ½ cup melted shortening.
- Gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared casserole dish.
- **For the topping:** In a separate bowl, beat together ½ cup (1 stick) softened butter, ½ cup packed brown sugar, and 1 large egg until light and fluffy.
- Pour the topping evenly over the batter.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (Cooking time may vary depending on your oven.)
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, topped with whipped cream (optional)!
