Ina's Brownie Pudding

John and I both have a very strong affinity for rich gooey chocolate desserts and Ina Garten's Brownie Pudding is right up there with the best we've had. This recipe is in the most recent Back to Basics cookbook and its a hybrid brownie-molten chocolate cake- souffle dessert guaranteed to satisfy even the most intense chocolate craving. It looks puffy like a souffle when you take it out of the oven, but then it falls down to create a crackly crunchy crust on top of a fudgy, brownie like center. Served just barely warm- you definitely need a scoop of good quality vanilla ice cream on top of this... a glass of red wine really kicks it up as well. The only change I made was substituting Kahlua for the framboise. I think the coffee flavor works really well with the intense chocolate. I would think a orange liquer such as Grand Marnier or Cointreau would be fantastic as well. If you're looking for an alternative to a molten chocolate cake or souffle that has to be prepared at the last minute yet something slightly more exciting than your standard brownie recipe, this is absolutely perfect.
