Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk or spatula
  • 9x9-inch baking dish
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Sifter

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 3/4 cups hot water

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  • Pour in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract; stir until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
  • Sprinkle the brown sugar and cocoa powder over the top without stirring.
  • Carefully pour the hot water over the entire surface without stirring.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top looks set and the caramel underneath bubbles.
  • Let cool slightly before serving.
  • For an extra twist, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the finished cake to enhance the chocolate flavor.
  • This cake can be served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for added luxury.

Notes

Don’t overmix the batter; it should be smooth, not stiff. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, or freeze slices wrapped tightly for up to two months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
