1
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
-
2
In a 8x8 baking dish and add the butter to the pan.
-
3
You do not have to cut it up.
-
4
Just add it directly to the dish.
-
5
Place the dish into your pre-heated 350 degree oven.
-
6
This will let the butter melt while we mix up the rest of the ingredients.
-
7
In a separate bowl add the flour, white sugar, cocoa powder and about 1 teaspoons of instant coffee granules (optional).
-
8
Stir the dry ingredients together.
-
9
Next add to the dry ingredients, add milk and vanilla extract.
-
10
Stir together really well.
-
11
Remove your butter pan from the oven and add the chocolate mixture right into that dish of melted butter.
-
12
The chocolate batter tends to be a bit thick and pretty difficult to spread out evenly, but spread it around as best as you can.
-
13
In a small bowl, add in the brown sugar, white sugar and the cocoa powder.
-
14
Mix well.
-
15
Sprinkle the topping evenly all over the top of your chocolate mixture.
-
16
Get very hot water.
-
17
I just poured tap water into my measuring cup and then microwaved it for a couple minutes.
-
18
You dont need boiling water, but you do need the water to be really hot.
-
19
Then, slowly, slowly, pour the hot water over the top of the cobbler.
-
20
Place the dish in the oven for about 30-35 minutes.
-

You want it to still be a bit jiggly when you pull it out of the oven.

Let cool and serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
