Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1.5 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 tsp baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tbsp milk or dairy-free alternative
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 0.25 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp hot fudge sauce store-bought or homemade
Notes
Storage: This is best eaten immediately. Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 day, but the fudge center will solidify. Reheat gently in the microwave for 15-20 seconds. Make-Ahead: The dry ingredients can be pre-mixed in a small container for a quicker assembly. Variations: Add 1 tbsp of chocolate chips to the batter for extra chocolatey texture. For a gluten-free version, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
