Brownie Pudding

I grew up with Brownie Pudding.  Love having it.  There was also a brown sugar pudding recipe but it just was not as good as the Chocolate one. .  I have often wondered why i like chocolate so much.  We had it for dessert often, when i was little. My children love it and grew up having it.   I am not sure who's recipe it is.  So i will call it my Moms.   I did not like having to cook it so long in the oven.  I found the same recipe but done in the Microwave. So now i can call it my recipe.  It is my new favorite.   I do not cook  much in the microwave, i use it mostly for warming things up and brownie pudding.  YUM!!!!!!

3/4 c. sugar

 2 t. baking powder

1 3/4 c. boiling water

Combine flour, sugar 2 T. cocoa, baking powder, salt and nuts.  Stir in milk,oil and vanilla.  Spread batter in a 8 inch round baking dish.( I mix all my ingredient right in the dish i am going to cook it in.)  Combine brown sugar and 1/4 c. cocoa;  sprinkle over the top of batter in baking dish.  Pour boiling water over all.  Cook on power level 7    for 9-10 min.  until top is set and begins to appear dry.  Serve war or cold.  Top with whipped cream or ice cream.   I like to eat mine warm with the ice cream.
