How to Make Mocha Pudding Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the hot coffee and chocolate chips (if using).
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and milk until smooth.
  8. Pour the pudding mixture evenly over the batter in the pan.
  9. Pour the remaining batter over the pudding layer.
  10. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  11. Let cool completely before serving. Dust with powdered sugar or serve with whipped cream, if desired.
