6-Ingredient Gooey Brownie Pudding/Homer Bailey No-Hitter Ice Cream Sundae

This is a recipe for those days when you need some chocolate and not just any chocolate, a serious hit of in-your-face, indulgent, gooey chocolate.  If you bake from time to time I bet you already have these ingredients on hand so all you need is a bowl and half an hour before you have this.  These beautiful crown dessert plates were a gift from my sister, Cameron, and you can find them here.

Update: This has now been christened the Homer Bailey No-Hitter Ice Cream Sundae.  To make: watch the Red’s Homer Bailey pitch a no-hitter, spoon some pudding into a bowl, cut half a banana on top, spoon on some vanilla ice cream and enjoy – Go Reds!

• 2 sticks unsalted butter
