It happened. At approximately 6am yesterday, it hit me – this move is happening. I was overcome with emotion, so the only logical thing to do was bake. For me, baking is therapeutic.
Even if I don’t indulge on the result, it calms me. But let’s be honest, I indulged. I nearly over-indulged! No complaints though, it’s those moments of stress where the best desserts are born. Marshmallow & peanut butter cookie cobbler!
For years, I’ve been baking a cookie at a time in a spice dish, ramekins or creme brûlée dishes. It gives a cookie cobbler like texture with a slightly gooey center & crunchy exterior. When topped with ice cream, it’s heavenly! This past year, I’ve seen several recipes for skillet cookies, but in my humble opinion, there’s no need to add another item to your cabinet. I often keep a little extra cookie dough in the freezer ready for such an occasion.
I started with my standard peanut butter cookie recipe & looked to my cabinet for add ins. Fortunately, we had marshmallows left from s’mores on the grill & some miniature Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Served a la mode with homemade magic shell, it’s the ultimate dessert recipe!

Julie, these cobblers look delicious! Could you please let me know what size baking dish to use (instead of individual ramekins) ? TIA 😊
You can truly use anything you’d like from a small casserole dish to a brownie pan. Enjoy!
This sounds amazing! Marshmallow and peanut butter together sounds like perfection!
I enjoy all your recipes, but this one has to be my absolute favorite.
Total and complete perfection in one mouthwatering dessert.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Thank you, Beth! It’s one of our absolute favorites and I *may* make dessert frequently.
Oh my goodness! I found this on Pinterest, and it looks heavenly. I love anything with PB in it. I am curious, is this recipe for ONE ramekin or multiple? I’d love to make something like it for a dinner party I’m having next week, but I wanted to get an idea of how much it will serve. Also, would it work if made in a larger baking dish rather than individually? I’m not much of a baker so would appreciate any advice you have.
Thank you! There’s enough dough for entertaining, you just follow the instructions for each individual ramekin – it gives it the crumbly cobbler texture. You can absolutely do it in a large baking dish, just bake it slightly longer. Don’t hesitate if you have any additional questions! It’s foolproof.
This looks fabulous Julie! I do the same thing, making mini desserts in ramekins all the time. In fact, whenever I make anything new to share with friends I always make at least one (and sometimes two..one for Husband) ramekins to taste test before the dessert goes out. These look fantastic! Yum! So glad I found your blog today. Pinning and sharing!
Great idea! Thanks for following!
oh wow that looks amazing! i’m on a pb kick now!
Thanks! SO AM I! Enjoy!
I found your blog through Ali at Gimme Some Oven and have enjoyed reading your posts. I had to laugh as I read this today. My family is moving too. The thought of packing all of our things and moving from friends and family is overwhelming some days. I find solace in the kitchen as well. Thanks for sharing this delicious treat! Looking forward to it calming my moving nerves.
Good luck, Kim! Best wishes on your move & in your new kitchen. Thanks for stopping by!
I’m curious how much this recipe serves? I’d love to make it in a pie dish, would doubling it be enough?
thanks!
It would be more than enough. You’ll need to adjust baking time.
