Ingredients:

For the pecan filling:

• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups pecan halves

For the cobbler topping:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup whole milk
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Prepare the pecan filling: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined. Stir in the pecan halves until evenly distributed. Pour the pecan filling into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
3. Make the cobbler topping: In another mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk and melted butter until smooth.
4. Pour the cobbler topping evenly over the pecan filling in the baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it out if necessary.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the cobbler topping is golden brown and set, and the pecan filling is bubbling around the edges.
6. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
7. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top.
