Easy Chocolate Cobbler
Easy Chocolate Cobbler is an ooey gooey delicious self-saucing pudding cake type dessert with the best of all things chocolate.
Ingredients
For the cake
- 1 cup all-purpose flour sifted
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 3 TB unsweetened dark chocolate cocoa powder sifted
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup milk your preference
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter
- 1 ½ tsp vanilla
- ½ tsp coconut extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks or chips
For the topping
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 4 TB unsweetened dark chocolate cocoa powder sifted
- 1 ½ cup hot tap water
- whipped cream to serve
- ice cream to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 9" cast iron skillet or medium-sized casserole dish. You want something with a bit of a lip since this will rise a little.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, 3TB cocoa powder, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, milk, butter, extracts and chocolate chips/chunks. Mix well with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined, careful not to overmix. Spread evenly in the greased baking dish.
- In a separate smaller bowl, add the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar and remaining 4 TB cocoa powder. Mix and sprinkle over the batter.
- Gently pour the hot water over the entire cobbler. Bake about 40 -45 minutes until a cake tester comes out clean.
- Let sit five minutes before serving with whipped cream or ice cream.
