Fox Reno Fruit Cobbler
(courtesy of The Fox Brewery & Pub in Reno. Makes 1 single-serving cobbler)
2½ ounces pie crust cut to fit into small serving dish
4 ounces fruit filling of your choice (from scratch or a can, no one needs to know)
Cobbler topping (recipe follows)
Vanilla ice cream
Follow box instructions to bake crust in a Welsh dish, ramekin, or single-serving, oven-safe dish, until the crust is golden brown. Add fruit filling, then top with 2 ounces cobbler topping (recipe follows). Wrap each cobbler in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
To serve, remove plastic wrap, and cook cobbler in microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and add 1 heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream.
For cobbler topping
¾ ounce butter, softened
½ ounce cream cheese, softened
½ cup walnuts
½ cup flour
1½ tablespoons granulated sugar
⅛ teaspoon cinnamon
Bring butter and cream cheese to room temperature and cut into ½-inch cubes. Toast walnuts and allow to cool. Chop walnuts into pea-sized pieces. Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix together by hand until the topping is crumbly. Chill 2 hours in a container. Store until ready to use.
