📝 Preparation Steps

Preheat Oven

Preheat oven to 350F with rack on middle position.

Combine

In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, flour, 1/4 cup cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine.

baking powder2 teaspoons

Stir in milk, butter, and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Pour batter into ungreased 8-inch square baking pan or similar sized pan.

Stir together

In a bowl, stir together the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, and remaining 1/4 cup cocoa. Sprinkle mixture even over the batter in pan. Pour the hot coffee evenly over the top - coffee will be a liquid layer on top. Do NOT stir.

Bake ⏱️ 35-40 minutes or until center is almost set. The top should have formed a nice top crust. However, a toothpick inserted in center should reveal a molten or melty center.

Remove from oven, let sit for ⏱️ 15 minutes, and serve warm. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream. Leftovers can be covered and reheated in microwave.
