Carmen’s Butterscotch Cobbler

Ingredients:

• 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 ½ cups butterscotch chips
• ½ cup boiling water

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or butter a 9-inch baking dish or similar-sized casserole dish.

2. Make the Batter:

   • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
   • Stir in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well until you have a smooth batter.

3. Add Butterscotch Chips:

   • Fold the butterscotch chips into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

4. Pour the Batter Into the Baking Dish:

   • Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

5. Add Boiling Water:

   • Carefully pour the boiling water over the batter (do not stir). The water will settle at the bottom of the dish, which will create the sauce while baking.

6. Bake the Cobbler:

   • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the cobbler is bubbling around the edges. The center should be set.

7. Serve:

   • Let the cobbler cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the perfect treat.

Tips:

• Customize the Flavor: You can swap out the butterscotch chips for chocolate chips or caramel bits if you prefer.
• Serving Suggestion: This cobbler is best served warm, and the gooey, rich butterscotch sauce at the bottom makes it extra indulgent!

Carmen’s Butterscotch Cobbler is a wonderfully comforting dessert with a fantastic blend of flavors. Perfect for any occasion, and especially great when served as a sweet end to a cozy meal. Enjoy! 🍯🍦
