New Dessert Discovery... Yumm!

I recently found a dessert cookbook I got from my Mom around the time we got married.  I LOVE finding random new desserts to try.  I reallllly wish Cody and more of our family enjoyed more 'fancy' desserts so that I could try those types out as well!  But sadly hardly any of them do.  (Cody definitely does not.  He's a cookies and brownies kinda guy... and often makes comments about the different desserts I experiment with.)  I am glad that this year I have now found recipes I (and we all) like for Apple Crumble and Apple Pie (... although I did not make the crust from scratch this first time... I do hope to in the future!).  So, back to my main point.  On Sunday I found this old dessert cookbook (Hershey's Classic Recipes) and flipped through it.  I was pressed for time before our family came over so I found something that looked good and was super quick and easy.  I ended up making Hot Fudge Pudding Cake and it turned out really well!  We ate it cold with whipped cream.  Cody felt like it would have been great with ice cream... and I felt like it would have possibly been better warmed up.  We did try it warm the next night... and I was torn, it was really good both ways!  I do think I slightly overcooked it... it could have been a little more moist and mushy as it's suppose to be kinda pudding-like.

I forgot to take a picture BEFORE we started eating it all!

Anyways, I just wanted to share as I'm always excited to try a dessert that people end up enjoying!  I found the recipe in the Hershey's Classic Recipes cookbook, BUT I saw that it is also available online in anyone is interested in trying it out:
