Fudge Batter Pudding

This pudding, when baked, has a chocolate sauce on the bottom and cake on the top. Mix margarine, 1/2 cup sugar, and vanilla together. Sift flour, 3 Tbsp. cocoa, baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt together and add alternately with milk to first mixture; mix well and stir in nuts (nuts are optional). Mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 5 Tbsp. cocoa, 1.4 tsp. salt, and boiling water. Turn into 10x6x2 inch baking dish or pan and drop batter by tablespoonfuls on top. Bake in moderate oven, 350° for 40 to 45 minutesl Serve warm. Spoon out a portion of the cake and cover with sauce. Whipped cream, pour cream or top milk goes well with this pudding if it is served cold, because the chocolate sauce becomes quite thick.
