Chocolate Cobbler

This recipe caught my attention when I looked through the pile. Once I read the recipe, it seemed very familiar...because it's almost identical to one of our favorite desserts, chocolate lava cake, also known as chocolate pudding cake. Think of chocolate cake or brownies on top of warm chocolate pudding or brownie batter.

We've made chocolate pudding cake many, many times. It is fast, you can mix it right in the baking dish, it takes normal ingredients, and it's so delicious. Please make it and enjoy the goodness we love and eat regularly. You won't be sorry.

Chocolate Cobbler 

from howsweeteats.com

1 cup flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 cup sugar

2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/2 cup milk

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 cup packed brown sugar

1-3/4 cups hot water

Preheat oven to 350.

In a bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking powder sugar and 2 tablespoons cocoa. Stir in milk and oil. Pour into a baking dish – I used an 8-inch oval. Combine the brown sugar and remaining cocoa and sprinkle over batter. Pour hot water over top (do not stir). Bake for 40-45 minutes.

The recipe I make is this one, with the sugars cut down to 1/2 c each. And I always just mix it in the pan. Brian and I agree that although they are both good, the Allrecipes one is better since it makes more of the sauce/pudding. Now go and partake.
