Preparation:

This recipe was posted by Sweet_Madnolia (Becky) in the Smoked-Meat forum. Becky is well known for her outdoor cast iron and Dutch oven cooks. I asked her to cook this recipe as I did not have the equipment at the time. Becky was already planning on a version of this and executed the cook with perfection the following weekend.  After seeing her post I immediately purchased a Lodge 10" cast iron Dutch oven. Big thanks to Becky for all the information and help. You can  see Becky's Dutch Oven post here.

This is my attempt at a fun outdoor desert cook for the chocolate lovers out there. This is Ditch Oven cook and required a 8" to 10" Dutch Oven and 21 charcoal briquettes. If you are looking for chocolate bliss... Look no further!

This is a multi phase dessert. Since this is an outdoor cook the video demonstrates combining the ingredients into two Ziploc bags to easily transport the ingredients pre-mixed to your camp or picnic location.

Label two quart size Ziploc bags with a "1" and a "2". In the bag labeled #1 or 1 we will combine the following ingredients.

1  Cup All Purpose Flour
3/4 Cup Sugar
3 Tbsp Unsweetened Baking Cocoa
2 Tsp Baking Powder
1/2 Tsp Salt

In the bag labeled #2 or 2 we will combine the following ingredients.

 3/4 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
4 Tbsp Unsweetened Baking Cocoa

If your heading to a camp or outdoor picnic you will also need to place the following ingredients in plastic containers and place in a cooler.

1 1/4 Cups Hot Water
1/2 Cup Milk
1/3 Cup Butter (Melt prior to using)
1 1/2 Tsp Vanilla Extract

When your ready to cook, place 21 charcoal briquettes into a charcoal chimney and light them. While you are waiting for the charcoal to ash over you can grease a 8" or 10" Dutch oven. In this cook I'm using a Lodge 10" 4 quart Dutch Oven.

Pour the contents of Bag #1 into the greased Dutch oven. Melt 1/3 cup butter. This can be done over the charcoal chimney or a camp fire. Pour in the 1/3 cup melted butter. Pour in 1/2 cup milk and 2 tsp vanilla extract. Mix these ingredients thoroughly and spread it out evenly across the bottom of the Dutch oven.

Nest pour the contents of Bag #2 over the top of the cake mix. Distribute it evenly. Do not stir or mix it in. Pour 1 1/4 cups hot water over the contents of the Dutch oven. Again, do not stir or mix this. Place the lid on your Dutch oven.

In a designated cook area place 7 hot charcoal briquettes in a circle with one of them in the middle. Set your Dutch oven over the top of them. Place 14 hot charcoal briquettes around the top of the Dutch oven and evenly distribute them.

Cook for 35-40 minutes. Check the cake after 35 minutes. Poke a toothpick into the cake and pull it out. There should be no cake mix stuck to the tooth pick.

The cake is now done. Remove the lid using a Dutch oven lid removal tool and then remove the Dutch oven from the heat. Let the cake rest 15 minutes then serve.

As you serve each piece there will be chocolate goodness in the pan underneath. Spoon this on the top of each serving. You will experience rich chocolate bliss!

I hope you enjoy this!
