Mint Chocolate Cobbler

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line an 18x18cm baking dish with parchment paper.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and coffee powder.

   Tip: This helps create the signature chocolate flavor.

3. 3

   Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients and mix until a crumbly mixture forms.

   Tip: Make sure to use room temperature butter for better results.

4. 4

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and almond extract.

   Tip: Don't overbeat the mixture, as it can become too thin.

5. 5

   Add the chopped chocolate to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.

   Tip: Make sure to break up any chocolate chunks before mixing.

6. 6

   Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

   Tip: Don't overmix, as it can lead to a dense cobbler.

7. 7

   Gently fold in the chopped mint leaves and salt.

   Tip: Be careful not to bruise the mint leaves.

8. 8

   Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top.

   Tip: Make sure to leave a 1-inch border around the edges.

9. 9

   Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

   Tip: Keep an eye on the cobbler after 25 minutes to avoid overcooking.

10. 10

    Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

    Tip: Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
