This Greek salad recipe is fantastic! It has a pleasant tang to it and tastes even better in the summer when cucumbers and tomatoes are at their peak.

I am telling YOU! ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUSNESS
Huh. Not at all what I was expecting. I don’t think I would call it a cobbler. I agree with others who said it was very gummy and oddly textured. I wouldn’t recommend you make it, but if you do, I suggest less sugar and a little bit of salt.
Loved it. My mom made this back in the 60s. She called it pudding cake. Thanks for the memories and I’ll be making it again and again.
For a little zing, add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon flavoring
This was the first time making this and it was so easy and so delicious. I will definitely make again.
Made this for a dinner party and even the non-dessert person loved it (one guest claimed to dream about it). The only changes I made were to substitute nut milk for reg milk in the batter and part brown sugar in the topping layer. This is a new favorite!
It was great! And so easy
My friend made it at work n I aced it at home
Mmm mmm good. I love this cobbler !
i made it in my iron skillet. It’s very close to a lava crunch cake Delicious and so easy
Delish! Doubled the recipe but only used 8 Tbsp total of butter, subtracted 1/4 cup sugar with each sugar addition in recipe, only added 2.5 cups boiling water, and cooked for 40 minutes. May try reducing sugar just a tad more as well as the water. Everyone loved it!!
Followed recipe and it was perfect! Absolutely delicious!
I love this recipe. The first time I made it my overnight guest walked in her sleep and ate the leftovers in the middle of the night.
Wonderful, deceptively easy, fudgetastic ( a new word!) dessert. Got rave reviews and didn’t last long! A must with vanilla ice cream!
One of the Most Delicious deserts I have made and extremely quick and easy to make!!!
It’s still in the oven but I’ve made this before with fruit and it was excellent!! Hubby saved me a piece.
I did something wrong. I thought I followed exactly. But it overflowed and basically all the flour/cake part was gone and stuck on the outside of the dish. I wish people could answer my comment and help figure it out. I didn’t have self rising flour and used 2 tsp baking powder. I have aluminum free baking powder which I normally don’t.??Wonder if that’s it. Also saw today people said 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1 tsp salt. I saw the 2 tsp in the comments on the more recent comments. It is rare for me to have duds so I’m going to try again and master this.
I followed the recipe to the letter and was quite disappointed; the pudding had the consistency of water and the cake/dough part was rubbery and very bland.
I didn’t change anything, although later I realized my flour wasnt self-rising. It came out like floating chocolate islands. I used a slotted spoon to serve and we put whipped cream on top. It was still very tasty.
Like many others, I substituted all purpose flour + baking powder for the self-rising flour. I used a glass 8 x 8 pan and had to bake more like 40 minutes. It turned out beautifully! It looks terrible before it goes in the oven and you’ll wonder if it was a waste of time and ingredients, but no! It’s perfect & delicious!
I baked this for 42 minutes and it was still extremely soupy. I let it sit and cool for over an hour and the chocolate sauce became pudding-like. I found it a bit on the sweet side, but tasty. Thanks for the recipe.
