Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.25 cups Water
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 4 scoops Vanilla ice cream
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the unsalted butter to the dry mixture and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to incorporate it until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the whole milk and vanilla extract until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips to distribute them evenly through the dough.
In a medium saucepan, combine water and brown sugar. Heat over medium heat while stirring until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer.
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion the chocolate dumpling dough and carefully drop it into the simmering sugar syrup. Avoid overcrowding the dumplings.
Cover the saucepan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let the dumplings cook for 12-15 minutes, or until they are puffed up and cooked through. Avoid lifting the lid too often to keep the steam trapped inside.
Remove the dumplings from the syrup with a slotted spoon and let them cool for 1-2 minutes.
To assemble the dessert, place one scoop of vanilla ice cream into a serving bowl, and top it with 2-3 warm chocolate dumplings.
Optional: Drizzle a spoonful of the leftover syrup from the saucepan over the dumplings for extra flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
