Yummy, is all I can say about this scrumptious dessert! This is so simple to make. Those who do not usually cook, this would be a great surprise for your loved one on Valentine’s Day.
When I combined all the ingredients in the dish, it reminded me of a child’s mud pie!
I changed the recipe a bit, instead of adding 1 ½ cups water, I added 1 ¼ cup of water and ¼ cup of Hershey’s chocolate syrup… I like chocolate!
I did not have any self-rising flour, so I substituted it for 1 ½ cups of all purpose flour and added a teaspoon of baking powder.
Ingredients:
2 sticks of margarine
¾ cup chopped pecans
1 ½ cup self-rising flour
2 ½ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
¾ milk
5 Tablespoons of cocoa powder
1 ½ cups water
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F
In a 9X13 pan add pecans and sticks of margarine, melt in oven
In bowl mix flour, 1 ½ cups of sugar, vanilla and milk
In separate bowl, mix 1 cup sugar and cocoa powder, set aside.
When margarine is melted, evenly pour flour mixture into the pan
Top flour mixture with cocoa mixture, DO NOT STIR
Pour water onto of the cocoa mix again, DO NOT STIR…
Place in oven and cook for 30 minutes. If contents seem too fluid let cook five minutes longer. The mixture should firm and will not totally set up until completely cool.
You can serve with vanilla ice cream or top with whipped cream.
