Ingredients

For the Cobbler:

  • 1 cup flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 2/3 cup sugar

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

For the Topping:

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1 tablespoon cocoa

  • 1 cup boiling water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 1.5 qt casserole dish or square pan.

  2. Mix the Batter: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cocoa. Stir in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared dish.

  3. Prepare the Topping: In another bowl, mix the sugar, brown sugar, salt, and cocoa. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter—do not stir.

  4. Add Boiling Water: Gently pour the boiling water over the topping—again, do not stir. The magic happens in the oven!

  5. Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top of the cake is almost set. The cobbler will have a soft, cake-like layer on top with a rich, pudding-like sauce underneath.

  6. Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Scoop into bowls and top with a dollop of vanilla ice cream for a heavenly holiday treat.
