Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup dark cocoa powder, divided 1/4 cup for batter, 1/4 cup for topping
- 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, packed
- 1 1/2 cups hot water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Position a rack in the center of the oven so the top cooks evenly.
- Pour the melted butter into a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly over the bottom.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the whole milk, vanilla extract, and 1 1/2 cups sugar until the mixture is smooth.
- Add 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup dark cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Whisk until just combined.
- Gently spoon the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish without stirring.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 cup dark cocoa powder with the light brown sugar. Sprinkle this mixture over the batter.
- Carefully pour the hot water over the top of the pan without stirring.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is set and looks dry.
- Let cool slightly before serving with ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra decadence.
