I don’t have many words about this concoction. I mean, chocolate cobbler?

The main thing is that I love cobblers – when I discovered there was such a thing as chocolate cobbler? Just about lost my marbles. For real. How could something so wonderful exist? Whoever created this recipe had me in mind. No doubt.

First, I imagined pieces of chocolate and your typical “dough.” Never did I think it was 100% chock full of chocolate goodness.

Clearly I couldn’t contain myself.

I ate most of it right out of the dish.

Though it is fabulous when hot and mixed with cold ice cream.

And not only is is scrumptious, but it is so easy. Ā It’s fast too.

It’s oooey and gooey and fudgy but in the BEST way possible. You have to let it sit for a bit right after baking in order for it to set, but when you serve it? It melts in your mouth. And topped with vanilla ice cream… oh my word. No words!

There is only one way I can describe this dessert: batter. It is like brownie batter or cake batter, mixed with fluffy cake and chewy brownies all in one.

It might be the most sinful dessert I ever made. My thighs agree. This is one of those desserts you make when you want something RICH. Like when you are serving simple salads for dinner and still have a lot of room left for dessert and might have had an extra glass of wine. It is exactly what you want coming out of your oven for dessert, trust me.

This rocked my socks off.

You have to try it this weekend. Or just make it for breakfast.
