Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Chocolate Cobbler
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 1.5-quart casserole or square baking dish.
  2. Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cocoa powder in a large mixing bowl. Then add melted butter, milk, and vanilla, stirring until combined. Fold in walnuts if using.
  3. Pour the batter evenly into the greased baking dish, smoothing the surface.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix brown sugar, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt for the topping. Sprinkle evenly over the batter, do not stir.
  5. Carefully pour the boiling water over the mixture in the baking dish without stirring.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, until the center jiggles slightly but doesn't look wet.
  7. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve warm, ideally topped with vanilla ice cream.
