Sugar: To add sweetness. Cobbler recipes are famed for being sweet and delicious which is why sugar goes into the mixture. Plain white granulated sugar is fine to use here. You could substitute brown if you prefer, but the flavor won’t be exactly the same. There is no reason you couldn’t use a sweetener instead. Just check the packaging to see how much sweetener to sub for the sugar.
Butter: To grease the baking dish and add richness. Butter is a popular ingredient in many dessert recipes and it has a dual purpose in this one. The butter greases the dish so it won’t stick and it also adds a rich, satisfying flavor.
Vanilla: For a contrasting flavor. A few drops of vanilla extract complement the chocolate taste of this dessert. If liked, you could use a different flavor extract instead, such as almond, coconut, or hazelnut extract.
Instructions Overview
You don’t need any special equipment, just the ingredients themselves and a baking dish. First of all, you will melt the butter in the baking dish in the oven. Combine some sugar, milk, cocoa powder, vanilla, and flour, and then add this on top of the melted butter.
The next step is to add more sugar and cocoa powder on top and then some water. It’s important not to stir the ingredients so you end up with a crisp, chocolate cobbler topping over the fudgy cake underneath. It’s amazing served warm from the oven!
Common Questions
Is cobbler just pie?
A lot of people wonder about the differences between cobblers and pies and there is a difference. Although both are equally delicious, pie has a bottom crust while cobbler doesn’t. The top of a cobbler is typically a biscuit dough mixture instead of the pastry found on pies. Oh, and a crisp has a streusel or oat topping! You can mix and match fillings, crusts and toppings, converting a cobbler recipe into a pie recipe or a crisp into a cobbler. The more you make such recipes the more fun you’ll have experimenting with new take on classic favorites!
