Saucy Chocolate Pudding Cake

Yes!!!! If you need a chocolate fix, this is for you. I thought I had lost this old recipe, but located it recently in my old recipe box, misfiled. It's super delicious!

Cake instructions:

1/4 cup shortening
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup sugar
2 oz. melted chocolate, unsweetened
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2/3 cup milk

Cream the first 4 ingredients, then add melted chocolate. Mix dry ingredients and add to chocolate mixture alternately with 2/3 cup milk. Set aside.

Sauce instructions:

2/3 cup sugar
2 cups water
1 oz. melted chocolate
1/8 teaspoon salt

In medium saucepan, mix all ingredients and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Pour liquid into a greased 1 1/2 or 2 quart casserole. Drop cake batter by tablespoon into hot syrup. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. (or cook on top of stove in a covered saucepan over low heat for 25 minutes.) Makes approximately six servings.
