Make this warm, gooey Snickerdoodle Cobbler for a comforting dessert that tastes just like your favorite cinnamon-sugar cookies. This recipe is simple to prepare and perfect for serving warm with vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, divided
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1/4 cup ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup boiling water

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this dry mixture aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 cup of the granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar with the ground cinnamon and cream of tartar. This is your cinnamon-sugar topping.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Spread half of the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  8. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the dough layer.
  9. Drop the remaining dough by spoonfuls randomly over the cinnamon layer. Do not cover completely; you want pockets of dough.
  10. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top of the cobbler.
  11. Carefully pour the 1/2 cup of boiling water evenly over the entire surface of the cobbler. This helps create the gooey sauce.
  12. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  13. Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • For an extra gooey texture, you can slightly underbake the cobbler by about 5 minutes.
  • If you prefer a thicker, cake-like topping, reduce the amount of boiling water to 1/4 cup.
  • Serve this warm cinnamon dessert immediately for the best texture contrast with cold ice cream.
