While making it is easy as you can see above, there are some tips that you could follow so that you get the best pecan pie cobbler possible:
- Make sure you use authentic butter and do not substitute it for any other kind of margarine even if you’re tempted to. Remember margarine contains plenty of water content which could mean your pecan pie cobbler will be flat in terms of its taste. The fat found in real butter will give this dessert a better texture that will make eating it even better.
- You should also make sure you go for unsalted butter because this way, you will have control over the overall flavor of your dessert.
- Do not substitute brown sugar with white sugar for any reason. Besides, brown sugar contains more minerals than white so that’s a good reason to keep it.
- Make sure you follow the baking time recommended and the recommended oven temperature. Remember, there’s always a reason why professionals set those timings and temperatures. It simply means they work best!
- You should also make sure you serve it right.
Speaking of serving, the dessert is already full of flavor and it’s difficult to believe that it can taste even better, but it can. The recipe already suggests that you serve it with vanilla ice-cream which is a great idea, but it’s not the only way to go. You can drizzle some caramel sauce over the dessert to make it even sweeter. This will leave your taste buds begging for more.
