Ingredients
Brownie Pudding Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar (200 grams)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 tbsp Strong Brewed Coffee (or 1 tsp instant coffee mixed with 1 tbsp water)
- 6 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (40 grams)
- ¼ cup All Purpose Flour (Plain Flour 30 grams)
- 115 grams Unsalted Butter (1 stick or 1/2 cup)
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F). Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan and allow it to cool to room temperature. Generously grease a 5×7 inch baking pan with butter and set aside.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture until it becomes pale, light, and frothy. Add the brewed coffee and incorporate thoroughly.
- Add dry ingredients and butter: Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour and unsweetened cocoa powder. Mix until well combined. Slowly pour in the melted butter, little at a time, mixing continuously to create a smooth batter.
- Prepare the water bath: Pour the batter into the greased baking dish. Place this dish inside a larger baking tray with high sides. Carefully pour boiling water into the larger tray until it reaches halfway up the sides of the smaller baking pan. This water bath helps to maintain moisture and create the pudding texture.
- Bake the pudding: Carefully place the setup in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour. The pudding will set and develop a rich, fudgy texture.
- Cool and serve: Remove the baking pan from the oven and allow it to cool briefly. Scoop the pudding into serving dishes and serve warm topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgence.
Notes
- Using a water bath (bain-marie) is essential to achieve the moist, pudding-like texture in this recipe.
- Make sure the melted butter is cooled before mixing to prevent cooking the eggs.
- You can substitute brewed coffee with instant coffee dissolved in water if you prefer.
- Serve warm for the best flavor and texture experience.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and gently reheated before serving.
