I have made this several times and it never fails to be absolutely beautiful and delicious! Put over vanilla or butter pecan ice cream and people will absolutely love it! Most people have never heard of it, so it becomes a new fave!

I have been enjoying making cobbler lately. Presently, I made Caramel Cobbler and Pecan Cobbler recently and had to send them away so I would devour all of them by myself! I could too. They’re just so dang good.

My plan for Thanksgiving is to put this in the oven when everyone gets here. By the time we finish dinner, this Snickerdoodle Cobbler will be ready and I’ll serve it hot with good vanilla ice cream. How does that sound?

This was AMAZING!! Super easy & super delicious! We paired it with vanilla & pumpkin ice cream….omg! Thank you for such a versatile delicious recipe!

Snickerdoodle Cobbler

If you enjoy the flavor in Snickerdoodle cookies, you’ll love this cobbler. It has the same wonderful, warm cinnamon notes.

This is a ‘dump’ type cobbler. You basically layer everything in a 9×13 inch pan. I don’t recommend cooking it in a smaller pan. Butter and brown sugar combine and cook into a rich caramel sauce.

I recommend using real butter in this recipe. It takes real butter to make a good caramel sauce. I have not tested it with margarine. I also use self-rising flour; it’s just convenient and easy and that’s what this dessert is all about.

This is one of my most favorite, if not the favorite, desserts. It’s just a bonus that it’s so very easy to make!

I don’t know what is better! The fun of making the silly thing, or EATING it! This is magic, I was cracking up at the pour the water over it stage. Too funny. I knew it worked because I shared it with a friend, who promptly made it and it was FABULOUS! So, now I am making one for my boss.. her birthday tomorrow. Thanks so much for such a fun and tasty recipe! This is a keeper for sure!

Tastes great and is quick and easy to make. Great with Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream.

How hot does the water need to be? Hot from the tap, or boiling hot?

Hot from the tap, it doesn’t need to be boiling.

First time making it and it turned out great! Thank you for the recipe!

I just read older posts and saw the answer to my question about all-purpose flour. Thank you.

I’d like to try this. Does all-purpose flour work in this recipe?

I loved this recipe and will make more often. I did make it in my cast iron Dutch oven over coals. One thing I will do is try it with some chopped bananas and nuts. I bet it will come out Great.
Thanks for the recipe:)
