Self saucing chocolate pudding, a comforting warm chocolate dessert. Chocolate cake batter when baked magically transforms into a chocolate cake with a sticky chocolate sauce. Can you believe that you can make this in less than 2 minutes. This is microwave version, but if you want to make this oven, check my chocolate self saucing pudding which taste amazing with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Take flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, milk, vanilla, oil in a bowl and mix well to a thick batter. Spoon this in a microwave safe bowl.
Now to make the sauce. Sprinkle top with brown sugar and cocoa powder. Pour some hot water over it and pop it in microwave and Cook it on high power for 1 to 1 ½ mins. My microwave is 800 watts. So depending on your microwave watts the timing will vary.
Remove from microwave and let it sit for 2 minutes and serve with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes
Depending on your microwave watts the cooking time will vary. My microwave is 800 watts and it took me 1.30 minutes. If your microwave watts is high it will cook faster may be 1 minute, so keep an eye on it.
Use microwave safe ceramic or glass bowl for making this pudding. it is best to use a wide bowl or ramekin to make this for the perfect texture.
Use best quality cocoa powder for intense chocolate flavour.
A pinch of instant coffee powder or instant espresso can be added, it will make the chocolate more intense.
Use flavourless oil like refined oil, for better flavour use melted butter.
Hot pudding taste amazing with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
