• Cook Time: 30 minutes

• Total Time: 55 minutes
• Yield: 9

Preparation

Melt the butter in a 13x9x2 inch baking pan (used a glass casserole) in a 350 degree oven. Combine the flour, 3/4 cup sugar, pecans, 1 1/2 tbsp cocoa, milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Spoon mixture over the melted butter. DO NOT STIR TO MIX.

Mix the 1 cup sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa together and sprinkle back and forth over the batter. DO NOT STIR TO MIX.

Next, pour the boiling water (I had boiled it in the microwave as I was getting the other stuff together) over the top.

DO NOT STIR TO MIX.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Cool somewhat. The recipe said to cool completely but I liked it warm. It comes out as partly fudgy cake and partly pudding bottom. Warm up some Hot Fudge Sauce in the microwave and spoon on top of the cobbler in the individual bowls then top with cold vanilla ice cream. Oh My Heavens! It is delicious and so easy! Enjoy!
