Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple in juice
4 ounces cream cheese
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the butter in a 9×13 inch baking dish and let it melt in the oven.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk until just combined.
3. Once the butter has melted, remove the pan from the oven. Pour the batter over the butter without stirring.
4. Spoon the crushed pineapple with its juice evenly over the batter.
5. Drop small dollops of cream cheese over the top.
6. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick in the cake portion comes out clean.
7. Let it cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm.
Notes
This dessert is best when served fresh from the oven.
Use crushed pineapple in juice, not syrup, for a balanced sweetness.
Avoid stirring the layers — the cobbler magic happens as it bakes.
