A classic French-Canadian sweet. Chômeur means un-employed; therefore, the dish bears its name because it is inexpensive. Along with rice pudding and jello, this is one of most commonly offered desserts in diners. WARNING: May cause sugar overdose. Contrary to the usual recipe, this one uses milk for a more cake-like texture. The original recipe also doesn't call for an egg, but my mother always made it with the egg. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 cup margarine |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup milk |
1 egg (optional) |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla |
2 cups brown sugar |
2 cups boiling water |
1/4 cup margarine |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325F.
2. Mix flour and baking powder, set aside.
3. In a bowl, beat eggs, sugar, and margarine.
4. Incorporate flour, alternating with milk.
5. Without spreading it, pour preperation into a greased 13 x9 pan.
6. Mix all the ingredients for the sauce in a saucepan.
7. Boil for 2 minutes.
8. Pour over top of the dough.
9. Bake 45 minutes.
