Fudge Batter Pudding

This pudding when baked has a chocolate sauce on bottom and cake on top.

Mix margarine, 1/2 cup sugar and vanilla together. Sift flour, 3 tablespoons cocoa, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt together and add alternately with milk to first mixture.

Mix well and stir in nuts (nuts may be omitted if desired).

Mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 5 tablespoons cocoa, 1/4 teaspoon salt and boiling water.

Turn into 10 x 6 x 2-inch baking dish or pan and drop batter by tablespoon on top.

Bake in moderate oven, 350°, for 40 to 45 minutes.

Serve warm.

Spoon out a portion of the cake and cover with sauce.

Whipped cream or top milk goes well with this pudding if it is served cold.
