A cobbler is delicious and sweet. My family loves chocolate cobbler. It is so simple to make.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

If you love chocolate desserts but aren't much of a baker, give this chocolate cobbler recipe a try. Easy to make, the result is chocolate heaven. Rich and gooey, the cobbler has a cake-like topping that's slightly crisp. Once baked, a sweet and velvety chocolate sauce forms under the cake-like layer. Best served warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.
