Boy Scouts Troop 888

Black Forest Cobbler

Serves 6 to 8. Recipe is provided by Boy Scouts Troop 888, Baton Rouge. The Scouts prepare this recipe in a Dutch oven heated by coals, not in a traditional oven.

1 chocolate cake mix

Ingredients needed to prepare cake mix

1 can cherry pie filling

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

1. Line Dutch oven with aluminum foil. Spray well with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Prepare cake mix per instructions on box. Pour pie filling into Dutch oven and spread prepared cake mix on top. Layer chocolate chips over cake mix.

3. Cook at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or until cake is done. Check every 15 minutes, turning lid, which is covered with hot coals, a quarter turn with each check.

Note: If you want to cook this in a traditional oven, you could probably use a casserole dish. Just be sure to keep an eye on it toward the end of the cooking time.
