This is an oldie. I think it may have been originally from Hershey. My grandma (1885-1979) made this one. She loved baking with chocolate This is so yummy. It has the consistency of a brownie and then chocolate lava. Not spongy like a lava cake. Top with ice cream and its a brownie Sunday. This will freeze. After baking freeze in air tight container. Thaw to room temp in an oven safe dish and bake off on low oven for 20 minutes or so Its magic the way it layers into the brownie with all that chocolate lava under and in the crannies

How To Make chocolate cobbler

Step 1

Place butter in 9x13 inch baking dish and place in oven while preheat to 350°

Step 2

while butter melts make batter
Step 3

mix flour, sugar ,salt, baking powder, 4 tbsp of cocoa , milk , vanilla Mix well until ya don't see any flour .. it will be a thick batter . set aside
Step 4

Separate bowl mix the 2 cups of sugar with the 1/2 c cocoa set aside
Step 5

Boil 3 cups of water.
Step 6

When butter is melted spoon the batter over the butter. Do NOT MIX! if ya need to spread a little that's ok .. But don't mix it! I find after spooning it all around it softens up from the heat to where it will spread a bit easier and not mix in
Step 7

Sprinkle the sugar cocoa mix evenly over the top of the butter and batter. Do NOT MIX!!!
Step 8

Take the three cups of boiling water and gently pour over the topping Do NOT MIX!!!
