Kitchen Equipment Needed:

9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking dish
Medium mixing bowl
Whisk
Spatula
Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (for the batter)
1/2 cup whole milk
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for the topping)
1 1/2 cups boiling water

Directions:

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Make the Batter: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Add the Topping: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the baking dish.
Add the Water: Pour the boiling water over the entire dish. Do not stir. The water will create a sauce as the cobbler bakes.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cobbler will be soft and gooey on the bottom.
Serve: Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate dessert experience.
