Chocolate Cobbler

I was on Pinterest last week and saw a pin of Chocolate Cobbler. Since I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, the images posted didn't look so appetizing (neither does mine). I was really intrigued because I had never heard of this dessert, so I asked my buddy Joyce if she had made it or ever tasted it. She hadn't made or had it either. I googled the recipe and added a couple of ingredients to it. I gave my version of the recipe a try on Labor Day and I'm glad I did. It is awesome! The next time I make it I'll add some some cream cheese to the "large bowl."
