Molten Brownie Pudding {Instant Pot}

Yum

November 3, 2017 by Jodi + 42 Comments

This Molten Brownie Pudding made in your Instant Pot is decadent, divine a chocolate lover’s dream come true! Scoop some ice cream on top and you’ve got a fabulous dessert.

I know it’s November and your mind might only be thinking pies and pumpkin desserts right now, but today let’s take a break from all that holiday baking hoopla and talk chocolate, Molten Brownie Pudding to be exact.

It’s no secret chocolate is my life (ok, so is peanut butter). I don’t know about any of you, but a chocolate dessert at our Thanksgiving isn’t unusual.

So even in the midst of all my fall baking, there is always chocolate baking going on.

So if you’re like me and you always have a chocolate craving then this Molten Brownie Pudding will definitely curb that craving.Served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. . . .um hello!!! I could lie and tell you it was awful, disgusting and totally not worth the calories, but that would not be very nice of me.

Molten Brownie Pudding {Instant Pot}

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 7 tablespoons butter, (melted & divided)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup milk chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Pour the 1 1/2 cups water into your Instant Pot. Place the steam rack inside.
  2. Butter a 6- to 7-inch souffle or baking dish with 1 tablespoons of the butter.
  3. In a large bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat together the sugar and eggs until light and fluffy, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa and salt. Add this to the sugar and egg mixture and mix until just combined. Mix in the vanilla and the remaining 6 tablespoons of melted butter and mix until just combined.
  5. Pour mixture into the prepared dish and sprinkle with the chocolate chips. Place on the steam rack and secure the lid.
  6. Select Manual and cook at high pressure for 30 minutes. Once cooking time is complete, do a quick release. Carefully remove the lid so that any condensation doesn’t drip on the pudding. Carefully remove the baking dish using mitts or tongs.
  7. Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Notes

  • If your dish doesn’t have handles, you can make a sling with a piece of foil, folded in half twice, that’s long enough to go under the dish and stick up 6 inches on each side, creating handles.  My dish doesn’t have handles and I didn’t want to worry about making a foil sling, so I just carefully lifted it out with hot pads.

    Does this use All Purpose flour, or Self Rising?

      Hi Lynette! It uses all-purpose flour. If a recipe calls for self-rising, I will always specify that in the recipe.

    I’ve made these several times. I use small ramekins instead of one casserole dish. They are a hit with the entire family!

      I refrigerate any leftovers and then reheat it in the microwave for a few seconds.

    How many does this serve? If I needed to could I stack two bowls? Does the cook time change? I need to serve 8 people!

      Hi Claire, this serves only about 4 to 5. I have never stacked two bowls in my instant pot and don’t know that I would. You could google it and see if it’s possible. Let me know if you give it a try.

    Is there any reason this couldn’t just be cooked directly in the instant pot pot itself, and scooped out to serve?

    Reply
    • Jodi says

      August 4, 2019 at 12:09 pm

      Hi Coco! I have only made desserts in my instant pot using another dish set inside. Every dessert recipe I’ve ever seen or made specifically calls for a dish to be place inside of the Instant Pot. I’m guessing there is reason for that and it’s probably because they would burn too easily if they weren’t place inside another dish. I’m not 100% positive about this, but I wouldn’t try making this directly in the Instant Pot. Sorry I’m not more helpful.

    Could you make this in a springform pan in the instant pot? or would it leak through the pan?

      Hi Kayla! I’ve never made this or any recipe using a springform pan in my Instant Pot, but I have seen IP recipes that specifically call for a springform pan, so it would probably work. Let me know if you give it a try.

    Can I cook these in the oven? They look absolutely delicious but I don’t happen to have an instant pot. Thanks!

      Hi Charmayne. I have never cooked this particular recipe in the oven, but I’m sure you could cook this in the oven. I would bake it at 325 degrees and am guessing it will take at least 60 minutes at 325 degrees, but probably want to start checking it at about 45 minutes to be safe.

    Does it have to be unsweetened cocoa powder because I could only find regular cocoa powder. Also, can I just use 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips? Thank you!

    Reply
    • Jodi says

      April 6, 2020 at 11:27 am

      Regular cocoa should be fine and just you can use all semi-sweet chocolate chips. I’d love to hear how this turns out if you give it a try. Good luck.

      Hi Shonte! I am so glad you love this. I’m sorry it’s fallen both times, I have never had that happen so I’m not sure what to tell you. Maybe you need to cook it just another minute or two, but maybe not. Sorry I’m not much help. I’d love to hear if you give it another try and what happens with it. Take care.

        When you mix the flour mixture into the egg/sugar mixture do you use the hand mixer or just fold it in? I wonder if maybe I’m accidentally over mixing it.

          I use my hand mixer but only mix it until it’s just combined.

    Sorry so much later. Figured 5 minutes and they turned out great. Have made them numerous times. Give everyone their choice of type of chips- peanut butter, butterscotch, dark or milk chocolate, etc. Now my family’s favorite dessert.

    This was my first time trying to make a dessert in my instant pot! I’m so pleasantly surprised!! It was amazing! My whole family loved it and I loved how easy and fast it was. I put it in just as we were sitting down to eat dinner. The timer beeped just as we finished! I made it in a 6″ cake pan. I’ll definitely be doing this again!
