Hot Fudge Pudding Cake

Ingredients

1 cup flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. cocoa
1/2 cup milk
2 Tbsp. melted butter or oil
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
1 3/4 cup hot water

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees

Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and the 2 tablespoons cocoa in a bowl.  Stir in milk and oil; blend in nuts if you are using them.  Spread in uncreased 9 inch  square baking pan. (I usually mix this in the pan I will bake it in.)

Mix together the brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa  and sprinkle over cake.

Pour hot water over all.

Bake 45 minutes.

The cake rises to the top while baking and sauce will be on the bottom.
