Betty Crocker's Hot Fudge Pudding

This article was written with AI assistance.

Hot Fudge Pudding this recipe came from “Betty Crocker Crocker's Cookbook for Boys and Girls” originally published in 1957. I love vintage recipes and I have quite a collection of vintage cookbooks.

Each recipe was made by children in a test kitchen. Every recipe has a quote from one of the children. This recipe has a quote from Lucy. She says “It’s yummy, and it makes its own chocolate sauce.” The Hot Fudge Pudding is delicious and so good with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

The instructions are exactly what is written in the book.
