Brownie Pudding

What do you do when a recipe doesn't turn out well?
You have a few options:
You can cry,
You can throw things,
You can vow never to bake again.
OR
You can take the result, and turn it into something yummy.

In this case, the fudge brownie cupcakes I made turned out very badly.

I'm not sure what went wrong with these, but I added chocolate pudding and the leftover IMBC plus sprinkles :)

A super yummy treat for any occasion! And a great way to use messed up chocolate cupcakes.

I'm definitely going to try making these again, I'm curious to know happened.

Ingredients:

Unsalted butter- 1/2 c (1 stick)

Bittersweet chocolate- 2 oz, chopped

Flour- 1/2 c

Sugar- 3/4 c + 2 tbsp

Baking powder- 1/4 tsp

Salt- 1/4 tsp

Eggs- 2

Vanilla extract- 1/2 tsp

Mini chocolate chips- 1/2 c

Directions:

1. Melt butter and chocolate in a double boiler, stirring until smooth. Put in fridge and let cool, ~20 minutes.

2. Sift flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in a large bowl.

3. Beat in eggs one at a time. Add butter/chocolate mixture and stir well. Add chocolate chips and stir.

4. Fill cupcake liners 1/2 full and bake at 325 degrees F for 20-23 minutes. 

For the brownie pudding, make Jello instant chocolate pudding according to package instructions while the cupcakes are still warm. Take cupcakes out of the liners and crumble into the warm pudding. Stir together, then serve with a scoop of IMBC- ice cream would be good too, but I wanted to use the leftover frosting I had.

It may not look super pretty but it's soooo yummy.

Enjoy!
