Chocolate Fudge Cake, AKA Chocolate Cobbler
There are two main recipes for this cake online, there’s a version that uses vegetable oil and more water and another that uses butter and less water. I went with the butter option because The only thing I thought the recipe needed was more salt, which I’ve added to the recipe below. Other than that it’s golden! And how I can’t wait to make it again!
How to Make Chocolate Cobbler
Preheat oven (350) and butter baking dish. Whisk 3/4 cup granulated sugar, flour, 1/4 cup cocoa, baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt. Mix in milk, butter and vanilla. Spread into baking dish. Mix 1/2 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, 1/4 cup cocoa and 1/4 tsp salt. Pour mixture over batter in baking dish and spread even. Pour in hot water (don’t stir). Bake until center is nearly set, about 35 – 40 minutes.
Just look at all that molten, fudgy chocolate goodness…
What Should I Serve with It?
I mean it’s pure magic on it’s own but you can go wrong with a few toppings. Here are my suggestions.
Ice cream. Vanilla, chocolate or strawberry. Fresh strawberries or raspberries. Nuts for a little textural contrast. Walnuts, pecans or peanuts. Banana slices. Just thing of a hot fudge sundae. Maraschino cherries, cause why not?
