Instructions:
-
Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). In a 13×9-inch casserole dish (you can use a smaller dish, but adjust cooking time accordingly), melt the margarine or butter.
-
Mix Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix with milk until a smooth batter forms.
-
Layer Batter: Pour the prepared batter evenly on top of the melted margarine or butter in the casserole dish.
-
Add Fruit: Spoon your choice of fruit on top of the batter. Do not stir; simply let the fruit rest on the surface of the batter.
-
Bake: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and bubbly. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cobbler; if it comes out clean, the cobbler is ready.
-
Serve: Once done, remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm, ideally accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Tips:
-
Fruit Variations: Get creative with your choice of fruit! Whether it’s cherries, peaches, apples, or berries, the options are endless. You can use fresh, seasonal fruits or canned pie filling for convenience.

Cake Mix Options: Experiment with different flavors of cake mix to customize your cobbler. Chocolate cake mix with cherry pie filling, yellow cake mix with any fruit, or spice cake with apples or peaches are all delicious variations to try.

Campfire Adaptation: This recipe isn’t just limited to the oven; it can also be adapted for cooking in a Dutch oven over a campfire. Simply adjust the cooking time and temperature as needed for your outdoor cooking adventure.
