Strawberry Cream Cheese Cobbler is the kind of dessert you bake when you and I want something easy, old‑fashioned, and gooey that tastes like strawberry shortcake crossed with a cheesecake bar. Fresh strawberries are tossed with sugar and cornstarch, poured over a buttery batter, then dotted with sweetened cream cheese so you get pockets of tangy cream in every scoop.
Why you’ll love this cobbler
This cobbler uses the classic “butter + batter + fruit on top” method that magically bakes into a soft, cake‑like base with jammy fruit and a lightly crisped top. The cream cheese layer adds richness and a cheesecake‑style tang that keeps the cobbler from being overly sweet and makes it feel special enough for guests with almost no extra work.
Everything bakes in a 9×13‑inch dish, so it’s perfect for potlucks, holidays, or summer dinners when strawberries are at their best. You can serve it warm with vanilla ice cream or chilled straight from the fridge, and it holds up well for a day or two.
