Viral Brownie Pudding 🍫🍮
320kcal
Ingredients
The Dubai Filling
- 115 grams Unsalted butter melted
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 125 grams All-purpose flour
- 40 grams Cocoa powder unsweetened
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 120 ml Whole milk melted
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract for frying
- 100 grams Chocolate chips Semi-sweet or milk chocolate
- 180 ml Hot water to be poured over the top before baking
Method
- Preheat: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8 inch (20x20cm) baking dish.
- Mix Dry: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 150g of the sugar, 20g of the cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Mix Wet: Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Spread: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
- The Topping: In a small bowl, mix the remaining 50g of sugar and 20g of cocoa powder. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the batter.
- The Magic Step: Carefully pour the hot water over the entire surface. Do not stir! This creates the "pudding" layer at the bottom while baking.
- Bake: Bake for 25–30 minutes. The top should be set and crackly, but the center will still be very wobbly and gooey.
- Rest: Let it cool for 5–10 minutes before serving. This allows the sauce to thicken.
Notes
- Serving Suggestion: This is 100% better served warm with cold vanilla ice cream or a splash of heavy cream.
- Don't Overbake: If you bake it until it’s firm, you’ll lose the "pudding" effect. It should look underdone when you take it out!
- Variations: Add a swirl of peanut butter or a sprinkle of sea salt on top for extra flavor depth.
