Hot Fudge Pudding Cake

1 cup flour

¾ cups sugar

2 tablespoons cocoa

2 teaspoons baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

½ cup milk

2 tablespoons melted shortening or margarine

1 cup finely chopped nuts (optional)

Measure flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt into bowl.

Blend in milk, shortening and nuts.

Pour into greased square 9x9x2 inch pan.

(Batter should be brownie batter thick).

Topping:

1 cup brown sugar

¼ cup cocoa

1 ¾ cup hot water

Stir brown sugar and cocoa together. Sprinkle over batter in pan.

Pour hot water over all. Bake 45 minutes at 350º

This makes a wonderful chocolate sauce on the bottom,

with cake on top. Serves 9

Note: Can be doubled and served in 9x13 pan. I

don't double the cocoa, in the topping and use 2 ½ cups water.

Serve with whipped cream or cool whip.

Best if served slightly warm. Yummy!
