Homemade Caramel Cobbler with Vanilla Ice Cream

Homemade Caramel Cobbler has a creamy caramel filling topped with a crisp crust. This easy recipe is one of my favorite desserts. 

A couple of years ago, I hosted a Valentine’s Lip Sync Battle for 50 guests. My husband and I dressed up like Sonny and Cher, complete with wigs, and lip-synced I’ve Got You, Babe. 

I think I went overboard flipping that long hair over my shoulder and holding my hand just right. Too bad I don’t have a pic. 🙂

We had such a good time and the highlight of this special night included dinner and a Homemade Caramel Cobbler!

You can see the first place winners below! They knocked it out of the park. 

I just love pink and black, so pink and black with a pop of gold made up the decor for this party.

I’d love to take credit for my Bubbles & Kisses take-home favor ideas, but I got the free printable here.

I ordered the hot pink organza pouches from Amazon and filled them with almond kisses. The gold foil matched my theme. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. 

A local catering company prepared the meal and they hit a grand slam with the food and the desserts. One of the desserts was a homemade caramel cobbler. It almost looks like an apple cobbler but there are no apples in this one. 

Once you see how easy this cobbler is to make, it will become one of your favorite desserts as well. You probably have all the ingredients on hand.

During the baking process, this dessert transforms into a scrumptious, creamy caramel with a crunchy topping. Amazingly, it’s not too sweet, which is a good thing. I don’t like overly sweet desserts.
