Ingredients
Cookie Base
- 1 (17.5oz) package snickerdoodle cookie mix
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter
- 1 large egg
Filling and Topping
- 1 (21oz) can apple pie filling
- 3 tablespoons caramel topping
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon sugar (divided)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Make Cookie Dough: In a small bowl, combine the snickerdoodle cookie mix, softened butter, and egg, mixing thoroughly until a consistent dough forms.
- Layer Bottom Dough: Using a spoon, drop half of the cookie dough in small spoonfuls evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle Cinnamon Sugar: Evenly sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar over the bottom layer of dough to enhance the cinnamon flavor.
- Add Apple Filling: Spread the entire can of apple pie filling evenly over the bottom cookie dough layer.
- Top with Remaining Dough: Spoon the remaining cookie dough in small spoonfuls evenly over the apple filling, creating a top crust.
- Finish Topping: Sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar over the top dough and drizzle the caramel topping evenly on top for sweetness and gooey texture.
- Bake: Place the assembled cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the cookie topping is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm, optionally topped with ice cream for an indulgent treat.
Notes
- The cobbler is best served warm and can be complemented with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- If you don’t have cinnamon sugar, you can mix granulated sugar with ground cinnamon as a substitute.
- Ensure the butter is softened to room temperature to blend easily into the cookie mix.
- Cooking times can vary slightly depending on your oven, so check for a golden brown crust before removing.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
