It should sit in the center. There is no need to slice or thaw it. The dough will soften and spread as it cooks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Step 3: Add the Fruit Filling<\/strong><br \/>\nSpoon the fruit pie filling evenly over and around the frozen cookie dough log, letting some of the filling drip down the sides so it can mingle with the cookie as it bakes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Step 4: Add the Butter<\/strong><br \/>\nScatter the small pieces of butter over the top of the fruit filling. This adds richness and helps create a slightly glossy, cobbler-like topping.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Step 5: Add the White Chocolate<\/strong><br \/>\nSprinkle the white chocolate chips evenly over the top. They will melt into the fruit and cookie layers, adding a creamy sweetness that feels very spring-like with berry fillings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Step 6: Cook<\/strong><br \/>\nCover the slow cooker with its lid. Cook on LOW for 2\u00bd to 3\u00bd hours, or until the cookie dough is set around the edges, lightly golden on top, and the center is cooked through but still soft and gooey. The exact time will depend on your slow cooker; avoid lifting the lid in the first 2 hours so you do not lose heat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Step 7: Rest and Serve<\/strong><br \/>\nOnce done, turn off the slow cooker and let the dessert rest, covered, for about 10 to 15 minutes. This helps the hot filling thicken slightly and makes it easier to scoop. Scoop the warm cookie cobbler into bowls, making sure each serving has some cookie, fruit, and melted white chocolate. Serve warm.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Tips for the Perfect Slow Cooker Cookie Cobbler<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Keep the Cookie Dough Frozen:<\/strong> Do not thaw the cookie dough log before adding it to the slow cooker. It will soften and spread perfectly as it cooks.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Use Any Fruit Pie Filling:<\/strong>Cherry, strawberry, blueberry, peach, or mixed berry all work beautifully.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Do Not Overcook:<\/strong> The cobbler is done when the cookie dough is set around the edges and the center is soft and gooey. Overcooking can dry out the cookie.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Let It Rest:<\/strong> Allowing the dessert to rest for 10 to 15 minutes after cooking helps the filling thicken and makes serving easier.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Serve Warm:<\/strong> This dessert is best enjoyed warm, straight from the slow cooker.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Add Ice Cream:<\/strong> A scoop of vanilla ice cream over the warm cobbler is highly recommended.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Variations and Substitutions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Chocolate Chip Cookie:<\/strong> Use chocolate chip cookie dough for a classic combination.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Sugar Cookie:<\/strong> Use sugar cookie dough for a lighter, buttery flavor.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Dark Chocolate Chips:<\/strong>Substitute white chocolate chips with dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Add Nuts:<\/strong> Sprinkle chopped pecans or almonds over the top before cooking.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Gluten-Free:<\/strong> Use a gluten-free frozen cookie dough.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Dairy-Free:<\/strong> Use dairy-free butter and dairy-free white chocolate chips.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>What to Serve with Cookie Cobbler<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">This warm, gooey dessert is delicious on its own or paired with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Vanilla Ice Cream:<\/strong> The classic pairing\u2014melts beautifully over the warm cobbler.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Whipped Cream:<\/strong> A dollop of lightly sweetened whipped cream.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Fresh Berries:<\/strong> Adds a pop of color and freshness.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Coffee or Tea:<\/strong> The perfect accompaniment.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Storage and Reheating<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Refrigerator:<\/strong> Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Reheating:<\/strong> Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds, or warm the whole dish in a 300\u00b0F oven for 10 to 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Freezer:<\/strong> This dessert can be frozen for up to 2 months.
