Mocha Pudding Cake

Ingredients:

- 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour or whole grain pastry flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt


- Pinch of ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup organic 2% milk
- 1/4 cup GMO-free or organic canola oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup hot brewed coffee



Directions:

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 10" deep-dish pie plate with oil spray.

- In a large bowl, mix the flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup cocoa, the baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir in the milk, oil, and vanilla (the batter will be thick).

- Spread in the prepared pie plate and sprinkle with the brown sugar, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and remaining 1/4 cup cocoa. Pour the hot coffee over top.

- Bake until the cake is set on top and the pudding starts to bubble up through the cake, 30 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Use a spoon to serve.

Notes:
- Use decaffeinated coffee, if you prefer.
- Or make Chocolate Pudding Cake by omitting the hot coffee and using hot water instead.
