Best Warm Walnut Brownie Pudding Recipes

BAREFOOT CONTESSA BROWNIE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Melt butter and set aside to cool.
• Beat eggs and sugar together on medium speed until very light yellow and thick, about 5 minutes.
• Sift cocoa powder and flour together, and add to sugar and egg mixture on low speed just until mixed.
• Slowly pour in melted butter and mix again just until combined.
• Grease a 9x12x2 baking dish (I used an 8x11), and spread mixture into the pan.
• Place dish into a larger baking pan.
• Add enough very hot tap water to larger pan to come halfway up the side of the smaller pan.
• Bake for exactly 1 hour.
• A cake tester inserted 2 inches from the side will come out 3/4 clean.
• The center will appear very underbaked, IT SHOULD. The texture of this is between a brownie and pudding.
• Cool, serve slightly warm or room temperature, with vanilla ice cream if desired.

BROWNIE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly butter a 2-quart (9 by 12 by 2-inch) oval baking dish. Melt the 1/2 pound of butter and set aside to cool.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and sugar on medium-high speed for 5 to 10 minutes, until very thick and light yellow. Meanwhile, sift the cocoa powder and flour together and set aside.
• When the egg and sugar mixture is ready, reduce the speed to low and add the vanilla seeds, framboise, if using, and the cocoa powder and flour mixture. Mix only until combined. With mixer still on low, slowly pour in the cooled butter and mix again just until combined.
• Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared dish and place it in a larger baking pan. Add enough of the hottest tap water to the pan to come halfway up the side of the dish and bake for exactly 1 hour. A cake tester inserted 2 inches from the side will come out 3/4 clean. The center will appear very under-baked; this dessert is between a brownie and a pudding.
• Allow to cool and serve with vanilla ice cream.

BROWNIE PUDDING

Steps:

• Mix the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
• Add milk, butter vanilla and nuts. Turn into ungreased 2 quart baking dish. Smooth on top.
• Combine brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa in a small bowl. Mix well. Sprinkle over top of batter.
• Pour water on top. To avoid making wells in the batter either pour the water slowly, or pour it onto a spoon held over pudding, allowing it to run off gently.
• Bake in 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes. Top will be firm. Batter will rise and there will be a pudding-type sauce at the bottom.
• Serve warm. This is really delicious with ice cream.

WARM WALNUT BROWNIE PUDDING

Steps:

• For syrup:
• Combine first 4 ingredients in small saucepan. Gradually whisk in 1 2/3 cups warm water and vanilla. Bring to simmer over low heat, whisking often. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over low heat before continuing.)
• For brownie:
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease 8 x 8 x 2-inch baking pan with shortening. Whisk first 5 ingredients in large bowl to blend. Mix in buttermilk, butter and vanilla, then walnuts (batter will be thick). Spread in prepared pan. Pour syrup over brownie layer.
• Bake brownie until sauce bubbles around sides and brownie layer has risen almost to top of pan and feels firm to touch, about 40 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool 10 minutes.
• Cut dessert into squares. Serve warm, accompanied by whipped cream.
