This. This is my go-to dessert! It takes just minutes to put together and with such a basic ingredient list, I always have the ingredients to make it.
When I have a dinner party, I can mix it together quickly as I talk to quests and put it in the oven. It’s hot and ready to eat by the time we finish the meal.

The only way you can get a dessert any easier is to purchase one already made and that would totally not be as tasty!
PMc’s Caramel Cobbler is one of those quickly made ‘dump’ type desserts. Do you know what I mean when I say that? Basically, you layer (dump) everything in a pan and bake it. There’s no pulling out the electric mixer, no kneading, and no waiting for something to rise! It’s a straightforward, super-easy layer-and-bake dessert.

- real butter I use salted
butter - self-rising flour
- granulated sugar
- whole milk
- pure vanilla extract or almond
- brown sugar packed
- hot water
- sweetened whipped cream
The milk, brown sugar, and butter cook to create a rich, creamy caramel sauce hugging the cobbler. It’s best served with a big spoon straight out of the pan warm with good vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream.

- First of all, I recommend real
butter for this dessert. The caramel sauce will not cook correctly with a substitute. - However, you can substitute
all-purpose flour for self-rising flour. To make your own, combine 1 cup ofall-purpose flour with 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. You will need to adjust this ratio for the amount called for in this recipe. - You can use whole milk, 1% or 2%. Typically, I use 2% milk.

I made this Christmas morning because my husband loves all things caramel and we had all the ingredients on hand. Cobblers are one of my favorite desserts because they’re easy and taste amazing. This caramel cobbler is phenomenal! I’ve found that some of the best dishes require the simplest ingredients. This is one of those. My daughter talked me into making another one yesterday lol!
Thank you!! I agree. Plus, I don’t have much patience so EASY is awesome. 😉
Paula,
This was absolutely wonderful! My entire family loved this cobbler, and that’s saying something. Thank you for sharing!
Carla

Why so many pictures of the same thing?

This was delicious. I get the part wanting to keep eating and eating. I added sugar cookie creamer instead of milk was worried it might mess it up but it was still delicious. Will definitely keep this recipe. Thank you
Thanks you so very much this looks great.
My Aunt Ruth made this dessert. She called it stickies. She is older now and could not recall the recipe. Thank you.
I made this tonight. My daughter and I both thought it needed something. Was kind of dry. Daughter made a confection sugar drizzle and it was better. Next time are thinking of making apple pie filling and fold it in. That would be awesome. It taste great tho. Thanks for sharing….

No the caramel cobbler is fruit-free. I have this version for an apple cobbler: https://www.callmepmc.com/best-caramel-apple-cobbler/
