  • Versatile: Enjoy it warm or chilled, with various toppings.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips (about 6 oz)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries

How to Make Chocolate Raspberry Pudding Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the dark chocolate chips and unsalted butter together, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until well combined. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture and vanilla extract.
  4. Add the all-purpose flour and salt to the chocolate mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out slightly moist.
  6. While the cake is baking, prepare the chocolate cream. In a bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in any remaining melted chocolate until combined.
  7. Once the cake is done, let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cooled, spread the chocolate cream over the top of the cake and decorate with fresh raspberries.
  9. Slice and serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure your chocolate and butter are completely melted for a smooth batter.
  • Don’t overbake; the center should be slightly gooey for that pudding-like texture.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before adding the whipped cream for the best presentation.

Easy Variations

  • Substitute raspberries with strawberries or cherries for a different fruit flavor.
  • Add a splash of espresso to the chocolate mixture for a mocha twist.
  • Top with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a drizzle of caramel for extra flair.

What to Serve With It

  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing.
  • A dollop of whipped cream for added creaminess.
  • Fresh mint leaves to add a pop of color and freshness.
  • A shot of espresso or a glass of dessert wine to complement the flavors.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To enjoy the cake warm, gently reheat individual slices in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.
