Description
Strawberry Cream Cheese Cobbler is a rich, cozy dessert made with juicy strawberries, creamy pockets of cream cheese, and a buttery cobbler topping baked until golden. This easy strawberry cobbler recipe is perfect for spring and summer gatherings, holidays, or anytime you want a warm fruit dessert that tastes amazing with vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients
2 cups strawberries, sliced
8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish and let it melt in the oven, then remove the dish carefully.
2. In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with 1/4 cup of the sugar and stir. Let them sit for a few minutes so the juices begin to release.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
4. Stir the milk and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients until a smooth batter forms.
5. Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
6. Spoon the strawberries and their juices over the batter.
7. Scatter the cubed cream cheese evenly over the top.
8. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the top is lightly golden and the strawberry layer is bubbling around the edges.
9. Let the cobbler rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
10. Serve warm on its own or with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Use fresh strawberries for a brighter texture, or frozen strawberries for a softer, more jammy filling.
Do not stir the layers once they are added to the baking dish because that rustic layering helps create the cobbler texture.
Let the cobbler rest before serving so the filling can settle slightly and the scoops hold together better.
