Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

How to Make Chocolate Chip Pudding Cakes

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease six ramekins or small baking dishes and set them aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.
3. Add the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
4. Fold in the chocolate chips gently until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling each about three-quarters full.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. While the cakes are baking, prepare the creamy sauce by whisking together the heavy cream and powdered sugar in a small bowl until smooth and slightly thickened.
8. Once the pudding cakes are done, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
9. Drizzle the creamy sauce over each pudding cake and enjoy warm!

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure to not overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay.
• For an extra chocolatey experience, sprinkle some additional chocolate chips on top before baking.
• Allow the cakes to cool slightly before serving to make them easier to handle.

Easy Variations

• Swap semi-sweet chocolate chips for dark chocolate or white chocolate for a different flavor profile.
• Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the creamy sauce for a delightful contrast.
• Incorporate nuts like walnuts or pecans into the batter for added crunch.

What to Serve With It

• A scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.
• Fresh berries to add a refreshing contrast.
• Whipped cream for an elegant touch.
• A drizzle of caramel sauce for added sweetness.
