- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Apple Filling
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter
- 4 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped
- 6 cups Honeycrisp apples, peeled and chopped
- 1/3 cup Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/3 cup Dixie Crystals Light Brown Sugar
Topping
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour*
- 1/3 cup Dixie Crystals Light Brown Sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled, and cut into small cubes
- 1 egg, slightly beaten

Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat a 9 x 13-inch pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, melt 3/4 cup butter over low heat. Stir in 1 cup brown sugar and milk. Bring to a boil over low heat and stir continuously for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Let it cool while you make cobbler.
- In a medium skillet, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium heat. Add chopped apples and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
- Combine granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small bowl. Add 1/3 cup brown sugar and mix well. Sprinkle over apples and stir to coat.
- Place apples in prepared pan.
- Reserve 1/2 cup of caramel sauce for serving and pour remaining caramel sauce over apples.
- To make topping, whisk flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl until well combined.
- Use a pastry blender to cut butter into flour until mixture resembles small peas.
- Add egg and vanilla and stir until moistened and dough begins to form. Work dough until well combined.
- Crumble dough over top of apples, making sure to cover all of apples.
- Bake for 30 minutes, and then cover with foil and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.
- Cool for 10 minutes before serving. Drizzle reserved caramel sauce over cobbler.
