Easy chocolate self saucing pudding
The cheapest and easiest pudding you will ever make.
Ingredients
- 1 Chocolate cake mix
- 1 1/2 cups Boiling water
- 2 tablespoons cocoa
- 3 tablespoons Caster sugar
Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 180*C
- Make cake mix by directions on the back of the box, mixing by hand with a spoon.
- Pour batter into an oven safe dish.
- Into measured boiling water add cocoa and sugar, stirring to dissolve sugar.
- Pour the cocoa mix over the back of a tablespoon over the batter mix (so pouring doesn't pit the batter). The sauce will sink to the bottom, when cooked.
- Bake for approx 25 mins checking with a skewer only the batter depth.
- When done leave to cool for a few minutes. Dust with a little icing sugar if you wish. Serve with ice cream.
Notes
I use a $0.70c home brand cake mix for this. (2023 and it's now $0.90c)
This is easy and cheaper than a self saucing pudding box mix.
Can be frozen.
Can make as individual servings, may need extra sauce ingredients. If individual leave room for ice cream in bowl when this is cooked.
