I’m a fruity-dessert kind of gal. Y’all can have your bougie salted-caramel-death-by-chocolate-tortes from fancy eateries while I inhale a strawberry milkshake from Zaxby’s.

And birthday cake? Not a fan. I’ll take warm cobbler with melty vanilla ice cream ANY DAY OF THE WEEK over crusty sprinkles and frosting from the Winn-Dixie. But I do love a box of cake mix because it comes in clutch for this cobbler hack.

I invented this pineapple cobbler using cake mix and honestly I should publish it on printed pages if I ever publish a cookbook called “Dessert For Dummies”. It’s simple. Like… stupid simple. Your third grader that can read a recipe can fix it up.

Throw some vanilla ice cream on top and I will stalk your dessert. I will just manifest in your kitchen and lick the pan. You will walk in and have questions and be salty that I ate your leftovers. I will regret nothing. I will have some ‘splaining to do when the cops show up.

Here’s your recipe.

I admittedly love anything pineapple so I obviously had to try this right away. It was easy enough that my 5 year old got to help. And it was fantastic! I also like that it can be made year round since it uses canned pineapple instead of seasonal fruit. I will definitely make this one again.
