Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sugar, divided
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish, preferably 9×9 inches, to prepare for the cobbler.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 1/2 cup of sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add the milk and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture, continuing to mix until fully incorporated.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Pour the melted butter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
- Spoon the batter over the melted butter, taking care not to stir it together. The butter should remain separate from the batter.
- Arrange the sliced strawberries over the top of the batter. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar over the strawberries.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden and set in the middle. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Once done, allow to cool slightly. Optionally, sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve warm for the best experience! This Strawberry Cream Cheese Cobbler pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, making it a delightful end to any meal. Enjoy the sweet, comforting flavors!
