Chocolate Cobbler

With a brownie-like top and a rich fudge sauce on the bottom, this Chocolate Cobbler is like a molten cake but much easier to make.

During the summer months I like desserts that are quick and easy and can be made ahead of time. There is so much spur of the moment entertaining that goes on, it’s nice to be prepared.

Cobblers are my favorite summer dessert and I love them with peaches, blackberries, or blueberries. But sometimes you just gotta have a little chocolate.

And that’s when this Chocolate Cobbler recipe comes in handy. It has a rich, fudgy chocolate sauce that magically forms on the bottom of the baking dish as it cooks. The top is like a cakey, chewy brownie.

This is an old-timey recipe of which you see slight variations. It falls under the category of simple and inexpensive recipes that make use of what you already have in your pantry. Make this Chocolate Cobbler taste even better by using homemade vanilla extract.

This is pure fuss-free, lip-smackin comfort food.

I like to use a few pecans, but you can leave them out.

Serve warm from the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a southern dessert that will leave everyone swooning.

If you have any leftovers, they taste great cold, straight out of the refrigerator.
