2 teaspoons vanilla extract

½ cup cocoa powder
1½ cups granulated sugar

Instructions

Combine 3 cups all-purpose flour, 6 Tablespoons cocoa powder, 1½ cups granulated sugar, and 1 Tablespoon baking powder in a 6 quart crockpot.
Add the 3 cups boiling water, 1 cup whole milk, ½ cup salted butter (melted), and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
In a mixing bowl, combine 1½ cups granulated sugar with ½ cup cocoa powder. Mix well.

Notes

While chocolate cobbler is best served fresh, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Warm for about 30 seconds in the microwave to get it good and gooey again before enjoying.
You can use coffee instead of water if you like mocha desserts.
Feel free to stir in some chopped nuts, or toffee bits if you would like.
