Chocolate Cobbler

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 350; grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
2. 2
   In a big bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and 2 tablespoons cocoa powder together.
3. 3
   Add in the milk, vanilla, oil, and nuts; mix well; pour into the baking pan.
4. 4
   In a smaller bowl, mix the brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder together.
5. 5
   Sprinkle evenly over the batter.
6. 6
   Very slowly pour the hot tap water over the dry mixture and batter (be sure you pour the water slowly or you will mix up the ingredients; using a glass measuring cup is helpful).
7. 7
   Bake for 40-45 minutes; to test for doneness, stick a toothpick in no more than 1/2 inch; if it comes out clean, the cobbler is done.
