Pour Boiling Water Over Cookie Dough… and Don't Stir!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cobbler — a homemade cookie crust on top, a gooey hot fudge layer underneath, and it all bakes in one 9x13 dish. If you love chocolate cobbler and you love chocolate chip cookies, this is the dessert you didn't know you needed. You sprinkle a cocoa-sugar mixture over melted butter, scoop cookie dough over the top, pour boiling water over everything (yes, really — don't stir!), and the oven turns it into a rich, pudding-like chocolate sauce under a golden, crispy-edged cookie. Serve it warm with a scoop of ice cream. Darren isn't a big chocolate fan… and this one converted him. Short on time? Store-bought chocolate chip cookie dough works too — but homemade only takes about 5 minutes to mix up. INGREDIENTS Cookie Dough: • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened • 3/4 cup granulated sugar • 3/4 cup brown sugar, lightly packed • 1 large egg • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled • 1 teaspoon baking soda • 3/4 teaspoon salt • 2 cups chocolate chips (I used a mix of semi-sweet and milk chocolate) Chocolate Cobbler Layer: • 4 tablespoons butter • 1 cup granulated sugar • 1/2 cup brown sugar • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder • 1/2 teaspoon salt • 2 1/2 cups boiling water Bake at 350°F for 35–40 minutes in a 9x13 dish.
