How to Make Squishy Chocolate Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional).
  3. Add 1/2 cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
  4. Pour batter into a greased 25cm x 15cm x 5cm baking dish.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder. Sprinkle evenly over the batter.
  6. Carefully pour boiling water into the baking dish until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the batter.
  7. Place the baking dish into a larger roasting pan. Pour enough boiling water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish (this creates a water bath for even baking).
  8. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. (It should still be slightly wobbly).
  9. For an extra chocolatey treat, push pieces of dark chocolate (about 100g) into the pudding during the last 10 minutes of baking.
