How to Make Hot Fudge Pudding Cake Vegan

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour an 8x8x2 inch or 9x9x2 inch baking pan.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar, 1 ½ cups (180g) all-purpose flour, 3 tbsp (21g) unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ tsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt.
  4. Add 1 cup (240ml) plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat recommended), 1 tsp vanilla extract, and ½ cup (113g) vegan margarine. Mix until smooth.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. In a small bowl, combine ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar, ¼ cup (50g) packed brown sugar, and 4 tbsp (28g) unsweetened cocoa powder.
  7. Sprinkle the cocoa sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
  8. Carefully pour 1 cup (240ml) boiling water over the top of the cocoa sugar mixture. Do not stir.
  9. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  10. Let the cake cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  11. Spoon into bowls, and enjoy the rich fudge sauce from the bottom of the pan!
