Description
This rich and creamy chocolate brownie pudding is the perfect dessert for any chocolate lover.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup butter (melted, plus extra for greasing)
- 4 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract (or seeds from 1 vanilla bean)
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tablespoon raspberry liqueur (optional)
- Vanilla ice cream (for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F. Generously butter a 2-quart oval or rectangular baking dish and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), beat the eggs, vanilla, and sugar together on medium-high speed for 5-10 minutes until the mixture is very thick, pale yellow, and fluffy. This step is crucial for the texture!
- Sift together the cocoa powder and flour. Add the salt and sifted mixture to the egg mixture along with the raspberry liqueur (if using). Mix on low speed just until combined, don’t overmix.
- With the mixer running on low speed, slowly pour in the cooled melted butter. Mix just until incorporated and the batter is smooth.
- Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish. Place the dish into a larger roasting pan with high sides. Carefully pour very hot tap water into the roasting pan until it comes halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
- Bake for 55-60 minutes. The edges will be set and slightly pulling away from the sides, but the center will look very underbaked and jiggly, this is exactly what you want! Do not overbake.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes. The brownie pudding is best served warm, scooped into bowls and topped with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- This dessert is indulgent and rich; serve warm for the best experience.
- The optional raspberry liqueur adds a nice flavor; feel free to omit if desired.
