Ah, a Strawberry Cream Cheese Cobbler—sweet, tangy, and perfect for dessert! Here’s a straightforward recipe you can make.
Ingredients
For the fruit layer:
- 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
For the cream cheese layer:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the cobbler topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
- Prepare the strawberries:
In a medium bowl, mix sliced strawberries with 1/2 cup sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice. Set aside for 10–15 minutes so the juices release. - Make the cream cheese layer:
In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp vanilla until smooth. Spread this evenly in the bottom of the baking dish. - Make the cobbler batter:
In another bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in milk and melted butter until just combined. - Assemble:
Pour the cobbler batter over the cream cheese layer (don’t worry if it doesn’t fully cover). Spoon the strawberries evenly over the top. - Bake:
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. - Cool and serve:
Let the cobbler cool for 10–15 minutes. Serve warm, optionally with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
💡 Tips:
- You can use frozen strawberries—just thaw and drain them first.
- For a stronger strawberry flavor, sprinkle a little powdered sugar over the top after baking.
