Description
Ultra-chocolatey viral brownie pudding baked in ramekins for two! Gooey, fudgy, and the perfect little at-home treat.
Ingredients
Units
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup sugar (100 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder (20 grams)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (20 grams)
- 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Beat Eggs and Sugar: Using an electric mixer, beat the egg with the sugar until very light and fluffy – about 2 minutes. (This is important to get the right texture.)
- Add Dry Ingredients: Add vanilla bean paste, cocoa powder, and flour; mix again until just combined.
- Mix In Butter: Using a spatula, fold in the melted butter, stirring just until it’s worked into the batter.
- Prep Ramekins: Divide batter between two 10-ounce ramekins (affiliate link) Place ramekins inside a 5×7 loaf pan. Pour water into the loaf pan (avoiding getting water in the ramekins) until the bottom halves of the ramekins are submerged in a water bath.
- Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes. (Less time = more gooey. 27 is my sweet spot for my oven.)
- Finish: Remove from oven and let it cool for 3-5 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar, and then GET INTO THAT. The top will give a very subtle crackle against your spoon, and the inside will be gooey and fudgy – but also light like a souffle?! Oh man. It’s so good.
Notes
If you’re making this into 3-4 servings using smaller ramekins, I would adjust the baking time to be more like 20-25 minutes since they will bake faster.
