My family and I were craving a sweet and gooey pudding but I didn't have any eggs and very little butter which made things a bit tricky! I stumbled upon this recipe and WOW!! what a fantastic pudding. I read the reviews and saw that some thought it not chocolatey enough or sweet enough so I added a bit more cocoa and dotted some chocolate spread into the batter and on top of the sugar. Fantastic. I now have a family of five very contented people. Thanks.

The cake was great and satisfied my chocolate crave with little fat. I even used a little whole wheat flour and Splenda. Instructions are a bit confusing - don't mix the flour and stuff in the pan - use a 4 cup mixing bowl. Scrape it well and you can use the same bowl for the Brown Sugar/Cocoa mix.

This was easy but so bland. after the first piece I decided it wasn't worth the calories. If I dare try this again I will use sweetened cocoa as one reviewer suggested. Three stars for being easy.

super yummy. you can make this recipe without the oil and replace the milk with water. that way it is fat free and vegan. you'd never know it. it's so rich and comforting. it's not really pretty. so, i would not serve it at a dinner party. however, it's a great family recipe. the kids feel like they are getting a real treat! and well, me too :)

I made this according to the recipe exactly. The recipe says the batter will be very thick, mine was about as thick as a regular cake. Still, it turned out very well. I will definitely make it again. Yummy!

Easy and quick to make, but I was extremely disappointed! For you Brits out there, this pud is like the Coco Pops of the pudding world. It looks and sounds like it'd be chocolatey, but it just tastes of sugar. What a shame.

This is a awesome recipe....so easy to make and I made no changes. I hate reading reviews that say a recipe was really good or really bad and then they tell you all of the changes they made. In the end it didn't even sound like the original recipe. Also, I have a granddaughter who is allergic to eggs and this recipe has none. Had it with vanilla bean ice cream and it was to die for and a huge hit with the family.

It was ok. The pudding had a really wierd texture to it. Also the color of the pudding turned out dark so it looked burned. Over all the taste was good, but i don't think that i would show the entire product if we had guests over just becase it looked like a big burnt blob.

Love this pudding cake and have made it many times before. I have started adding 1 or 2 extra teaspoons of cocoa to the mix plus a teaspoon of espresso powder. I also an extra 1/4 of water as I like more sauce.

Awesome! We call this chocolate self-saucing pudding, I couldn't find a single recipe with that name on the website (at the boyfriends without my trusty recipe book) so I gave this a go and it was just what I wanted!

This was so quick and had lots of chocolate flavour, and we had it with vanilla ice cream. I did up the cocoa in the cake to 3 Tbsp and stirred really well (some reviews said flour tasting...maybe the quality of the cocoa is also a factor)I baked for 22 min. but think 20 would have been better. Some reviews said it was saucy on the bottom but mine was very pudding-like. Very good.
