Snickerdoodle Cobbler – A Gooey, Cinnamon-Sugar Delight

This Snickerdoodle Cobbler is the perfect dessert for anyone who loves the classic cinnamon-sugar flavors of snickerdoodle cookies but wants something warm, gooey, and comforting. The cobbler brings together the best parts of a soft-baked cookie and a cobbler, creating a rich dessert with a caramelized top and a buttery, soft center. The brown sugar and hot water create a rich sauce beneath the batter, giving it a self-saucing effect that elevates the texture and flavor.
