~ Maple Sugar Pudding Cake ~

Ingredients: 1-1/2 c. all-purpose flour * 3/4 c. sugar * 2 tsp. baking powder * 1/2 tsp. salt * 3/4 c. milk * 1/2 c. chopped walnuts * 1-1/2 c. Pure Maple Syrup * 3/4 c. water * 2 tbsp. butter * Whipped Cream or Ice Cream
Directions: Mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk and nuts. Pour into a greased 8-inch square pan. Combine the maple syrup, water and butter in a small saucepan. Heat just until the butter melts. Pour the warm sauce over the cake batter; do not stir. Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 45 minutes. A pudding-like sauce forms as the cake bakes. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream. Serves 6. ~ Chef ~
