Ingredients

Scale

Strawberries

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup sugar

Cream Cheese Mixture

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened (at room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup sugar

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cobbler.
  2. Prepare Strawberries: In a medium bowl, mix the sliced strawberries with 1/4 cup of sugar. Stir gently and let the mixture sit to release the juices and sweeten the fruit.
  3. Mix Cream Cheese and Sugar: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the remaining 3/4 cup of sugar, continuing to beat until well combined and smooth.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together to ensure even distribution of leavening and seasoning.
  5. Combine Wet Ingredients: Mix the milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter in a separate bowl to prepare the wet mixture for the batter.
  6. Make Batter: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Overmixing should be avoided to keep the cobbler tender.
  7. Assemble Cobbler: Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish. Pour half of the batter into the dish, spreading it evenly. Then, layer the sugared strawberries evenly over the batter.
  8. Top with Remaining Batter: Pour the remaining batter over the strawberries, spreading gently to cover the fruit.
  9. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.
  10. Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes to set before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter to prevent a dense cobbler; mix just until combined.
  • You can substitute fresh strawberries with frozen ones; thaw and drain excess liquid before use.
  • This cobbler is best served warm, possibly with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • Use an 8×8-inch baking dish for even cooking and proper thickness.
