📜 A Little History
Peach cobbler has deep roots in the American South. Early settlers created cobblers as a substitute for traditional pies because they didn’t have proper ovens or ingredients. Instead of pie crust, they topped fruit with biscuit or crumble-style dough and baked it over fire.
Cheesecake, on the other hand, dates back to ancient Greece, but modern cream cheese-style cheesecake became popular in America in the late 1800s.
This recipe is a delicious fusion of Southern cobbler tradition and classic American cheesecake — layered into cute, modern mini desserts.
