Categories: Cobbler, Dessert

Ingredients

• 1 cup self-rising flour
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 3/4 cups hot water

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°; grease an 8×8 inch baking pan.

2. In a big bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and 2 tablespoons cocoa powder together.

3. Add in the milk, vanilla, oil, and nuts; mix well; pour into the baking pan.

4. In a smaller bowl, mix the brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder together.

5. Sprinkle evenly over the batter.

6. Very slowly pour the hot tap water over the dry mixture and batter (be sure you pour the water slowly or you will mix up the ingredients; using a glass measuring cup is helpful).

7. Bake for 40-45 minutes; to test for doneness, stick a toothpick in no more than 1/2 inch; if it comes out clean, the cobbler is done.
