Brownie Pudding

Brownie Pudding

1 - 19.5 oz. box fudge brownie mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/3 cups boiling water
Whipped cream or ice cream

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease two 9-inch square baking dishes. Combine the brownie mix, oil, eggs and 1/4 cup of water in a medium bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended, about 1 minute. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared baking dishes.
Combine the brown sugar and cocoa powder in a small bowl; mix well. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture evenly over the batter in each baking dish. Pour half of the boiling water on top of the brown sugar mixture in each baking dish. Bake the pudding until set, about 25 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
