Brownie Pudding

  Welcome again to my lifestyle, you nerds. Baked anything yummy recently? Well, if you somehow, by some fluke of fate come across this post, you hopefully will be baking something yummy very soon.
  Now, I've already posted recipes for both chocolate cake (Black Forest Cake) and cheesecake (CheeseCake), and posted the hybrid recipe of those two things on here (Cream Cheese Chocolate Cupcakes). Now It's time for another hybrid recipe. Only this time with brownies and pudding!
  This dessert is quite a bit exactly what it sounds like. It's a moist, crumbly, chocolate cake with a rich, smooth, chocolate pudding underneath.
  This is a second generation recipe. I got it from my mother, who got it from her sister. Her sister's in-laws made it all the time and she figured that her siblings would like it. They all did. And I have no doubt that if you go through the bother of making this, you will greatly enjoy it too.
  This is served best as an evening dessert. After dinner or for night lunch. Warm in the microwave for about 15 seconds and top with a scoop of ice
cream. It's almost sinful how good it tastes.

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup cocoa
1 cup butter, melted
1 cup milk
2 tsp vanilla
KEEP SEPARATE!!!
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
3 cups hot water

Directions:
1. Mix the melted butter and sugar together in a large bowl.
2. Add the milk and vanilla. Stir.
3. Now add the flour, salt, cocoa, and baking powder.
4. Beat until no lumps remain.
5. Spread evenly into a 9x13 baking pan.
6. In a new bowl mix together the sugar and cocoa that you were told to keep separate.
7. Sprinkle this mixture over the batter in the pan. Make sure to get it in all the corners.
8. Pour the 3 cups hot water over the batter.
9. Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes or until you insert a fork 1/4 inch into the surface and break away a part and it's not doughy inside there. (I know it's not super exact, but there isn't really a perfect baking time. It's different every time I make it.)

Little tips from me:
  Be careful when moving the pan into the oven. The water you pour over top has a tendency to be quite spilly.
