Somewhere between rich chocolate pudding and decadent fudge pie is the best way to describe this dessert. It's gooey, and the Orange Cream is just the light contrast needed. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
3/4 cup cocoa |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
5 large eggs |
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 1/3 cups chopped pecans, toasted |
orange cream |
garnish: orange zest |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients. Add eggs; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Add butter and vanilla, beating well. Stir in pecans. 2. Spoon mixture into 8 greased 6-ounce custard cups or ramekins (see Note). Place cups in a large roasting pan; add hot water to pan to depth of 1 . Cover pan with aluminum foil, and bake at 300° for 1 hour. Uncover pan, and remove cups from water. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes. Serve warm with Orange Cream. Garnish, if desired. 3. Note: If you don't have custard cups, baked fudge can be prepared in a greased 9 square pan. Cover and bake in water bath 1 hour and 15 to 20 minutes. Spoon into dessert dishes. |
