Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 package snickerdoodle cookie mix (with mix and cinnamon sugar packet, follow recipe instructions instead of package directions)
- ½ cup butter
- 1 egg
Filling and Topping
- 1 can apple pie filling
- 3 tablespoons caramel topping
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature by the time you’re ready to bake the cobbler.
- Prepare Cookie Dough: In a bowl, mix together the snickerdoodle cookie mix (exclude the cinnamon sugar packet), butter, and egg until a cookie dough forms. The dough should come together easily but remain soft.
- Prepare Baking Pan: Spray an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking and make for easier cleanup.
- First Layer of Dough: Divide your cookie dough in half. Pinch small sections from one half and scatter them evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan, creating a base layer.
- Add Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar packet over the cookie dough pieces laid out in the pan to infuse that classic snickerdoodle cinnamon flavor.
- Add Apple Pie Filling: Spread the entire can of apple pie filling evenly on top of the cinnamon-sprinkled dough chunks, creating a juicy, fruity layer.
- Top Layer of Dough: Take the remaining half of the cookie dough and pinch off small sections again, scattering them over the apple pie filling to cover most of it.
- Final Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle the remaining half of the cinnamon sugar packet over the top dough pieces for an extra touch of sweetness and cinnamon aroma.
- Caramel Drizzle: Drizzle 3 tablespoons of caramel topping evenly over the entire cobbler to add a luscious, gooey sweetness.
- Bake: Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the cobbler top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, indicating it’s cooked through but still tender.
