CHOCOLATE COBBLER

Category: Cobblers/Crumbles and Crisps

6 tbsp butter
1 cup self-rising flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans, lightly toasted
1-1/2 tbsp cocoa
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
1-1/2 cups boiling water
Hot Fudge Sauce
Vanilla Ice Cream

Preheat the oven to 350. Melt the butter in a 13x9 inch baking pan in the oven. Combine the flour, 3/4 cup sugar, pecans, 1 1/2 tbsp cocoa, milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Spoon mixture over the melted butter. DO NOT STIR TO MIX. Mix the 1 cup sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa together and sprinkle back and forth over the batter. DO NOT STIR TO MIX. Next, pour the boiling water (I had boiled it in the microwave as I was getting the other stuff together) over the top. DO NOT STIR TO MIX. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Cool somewhat. It comes out as partly fudgy cake and partly pudding bottom.

To serve: Warm up some Hot Fudge Sauce in the microwave and spoon on top of the cobbler in the individual bowls then top with cold vanilla ice cream.
