Tips:
- Make sure that you stir the pecan mixture well before pouring it over the crusts as the sugar and ingredients can settle to the bottom.
- Make sure your brown sugar is packed tightly into a dry measuring cup to eliminate air pockets.
- Vanilla ice cream goes well with cobbler, especially when it’s hot out of the oven!
