Hot fudge sundae cake

Ingredients

• ¾ cup all-purpose flour
• 2/3 cup white sugar
• ½ cup unsweetened baking cocoa (divided)
• 1½ teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup milk
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2/3 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1¼ cups boiling water
• 1½ teaspoons instant coffee granules
• Vanilla ice cream

Preparation

• Preheat oven to 350°. In an (un-greased) 8x8 baking pan, mix flour, white sugar, ¼ cup of the cocoa, baking powder and salt (stir it up to combine) add the milk and oil and stir until the batter is well mixed.
• Mix the brown sugar and ¼ cup of cocoa together and sprinkle evenly over the batter (do not mix it in).
• Combine the boiling water, vanilla and instant coffee and gently pour it over everything (do not mix in it).
• Bake for 35 minutes (the hot fudge sauce will bubble up from underneath and around the edges of the cake as it bakes).
• Allow this to cool for 15 minutes before you serve it.
• To serve, top a slice of cake with scoop of vanilla ice cream and spoon the hot fudge sauce over the ice cream.
