Prepare the batter. Next, you’ll whisk together granulated sugar, Bisquick baking mix, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth.

Add the batter. Next, pour the batter evenly over the pecans, but do not stir!

Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the batter. Again, don’t stir.

The center will still be somewhat jiggly.

Remove pan from oven and let cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving warm.

Notes and Adaptations:

I like using pecan halves for this cobbler, but you can use chopped pecans if preferred.
This is a very rich dessert, so a small serving will go a long way. I like to add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, but whipped cream would be a good choice, too!
The cobbler will be jiggly when it comes out of the oven–that’s because of the caramel sauce that formed under the crust. It will thicken slightly as it cools.
