Chômeur's Pudding

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chômeur's Pudding.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C) and generously greasing a 9x13-inch baking dish to ensure your delicious creation doesn’t stick.

2. Step 2

   In a small bowl, take a moment to sift together the flour and baking powder, which will help create a light and fluffy texture in your dessert.

3. Step 3

   Now, grab a large mixing bowl and, using an electric mixer, beat together the white sugar, 1/4 cup of margarine, and an egg until the mixture is smooth and creamy—this is where the magic begins! Next, gradually add the flour mixture in two parts, alternating with the milk.

4. Step 4

   After each addition, give the batter a gentle stir until everything is just combined; you want to keep that lovely texture intact.

5. Step 5

   Once your batter is ready, pour it into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

6. Step 6

   Now, let’s make the luscious sauce that will take this dessert to the next level.

7. Step 7

   In a saucepan, bring some water to a boil, then stir in the brown sugar, the remaining 1/4 cup of margarine, and a splash of vanilla extract.

8. Step 8

   Allow this delightful mixture to return to a boil and let it cook for about 2 minutes, filling your kitchen with a warm, inviting aroma.

9. Step 9

   Carefully pour this hot sauce over the batter in the baking dish, watching as it seeps in and promises a gooey, sweet surprise.
