Stir in optional raisins or nuts. Spread evenly in pan. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cocoa. Pour boiling hot water over batter. Bake for 40 minutes. The water will make a sauce with the brown sugar and cocoa and percolate down to the bottom of the pan. You will get a wonderful moist pudding with a bottom layer of rich chocolatey sauce. Let stand for 15 minutes.

Spoon into dessert dishes or cut into squares. Invert each square onto dessert plate. Top with ice cream and spoon sauce over each square.
