Recipe: Chocolate-Amaretto Pudding Cake



Food & Wine Magazine, Feb 2025, p.42
4.8 stars

I'm starting to bake again(!) and decide on this "easy" recipe because of its description: "At first glance, pudding cakes may look like classic cakes with a breadlike crumb, but they actually bake into two different textures."

I loved that this had a cake-like texture on top and then a gooey pudding/lava-like cake at the bottom -- and chocolate chips that added crunchy texture throughout when eating it cold. It was an interesting process making this as there were essentially 3 "layers" I created, including the coffee and almond extract that were poured on top.

Ingredients: all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa, dark chocolate chips, coffee, sour cream, amaretto, vanilla extract, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, baking soda, Kosher salt, water

Ingredients for serving: vanilla ice cream, fresh berries

Tips/Notes:
  • Used decaf coffee
  • We were out of amaretto, so used almond extract (did research and used one-eighth amount of almond extract)
