How To Make lisa's chocolate cobbler

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2
    First stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, 3 tablespoons of the cocoa, and 3/4 cup of the white sugar. Reserve the remaining cocoa and sugar.
  • 3
    Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla to the flour mixture. Mix until smooth.
  • 4
    Pour the mixture into an ungreased 8-inch baking dish. I prefer my small oval Corning Ware glass dish.
  • 5
    In a separate small bowl, mix the remaining white sugar (it should be 1/2 cup), the brown sugar, and remaining 4 tablespoons of cocoa. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter.
  • 6
    Pour the hot tap water over all. DO NOT STIR!
  • 7
    Bake for about 40 minutes or until the center is set.
  • 8
    Let stand for a few minutes if you can hold yourself back. Serve with homemade ice cream using the gooey sauce to spoon over all.
