PECAN PIE COBBLER
Pecan Pie Cobbler is a sweet, gooey dessert that blends the rich flavor of traditional pecan pie with a buttery, cake-like cobbler topping. This easy-to-make dish is a crowd-pleaser, perfect for holiday dinners or any special occasion!
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 box 8 oz yellow cake mix
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, corn syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
- Stir in the chopped pecans.
- Pour the melted butter into the prepared baking dish, then evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix over the butter. Do not stir.
- Pour the pecan mixture over the cake mix layer. Do not mix—just pour it over the top.
- Drizzle the heavy cream evenly over the cobbler.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The center should still be slightly gooey.
- Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
Notes
- For a slightly different flavor, try using dark corn syrup or maple syrup in place of light corn syrup.
- You can substitute the pecans with walnuts or other nuts if preferred.
- For an extra indulgent dessert, drizzle some caramel sauce over the cobbler when serving.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven before serving.
- If you want a firmer cobbler topping, reduce the amount of heavy cream slightly.
- This dessert pairs perfectly with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a richer experience.
