Chocolate Chip Cookie Apple Crumble For Two

It seems that the latest trend in desserts is fruit with cookies on top. Or at least that’s what I kept seeing on Pinterest. Of course I can’t find the link to the first recipe I saw, but I believe it was oatmeal cookies on top of peach cobbler. Another one used snickerdoodles. Then I saw a chocolate chip cookie crumble and fell in love. You can pretty much win my heart with chocolate chip cookies and knew I had to make my own. Seeing that I had a ton of apples in the kitchen, I made a fall version with Chocolate Chip Cookie Apple Crumble For Two. In my mind I keep calling it a crisp, but because there are oats in the topping, it is technically a crumble. And yes, it’s another dessert for two recipe. I can’t help but be obsessed with making them! There are so many possibilities for small batch desserts when you own ramekins (Amazon affiliate link). Do you like it when I make small desserts like this? Or is it getting redundant? Whatever your answer may be, I hope you will at least give these mini apple crumbles a try!

I first made these crumbles the day Dad and I picked apples. Since I was feeding four people, I doubled the recipe. You can even cut the recipe in half for a single serving crumble. And if you’re reading this post when it’s not apple season, you can use almost any fruit you want – pears, peaches, raspberries, even strawberries.

As I’m sitting here typing and looking out the window, the leaves are starting to change colors. Although fall is taking its time to arrive, I can’t wait. I recently discovered a hiking trail near me that goes through the woods to this (not impressive) waterfall. As I walked through the trees, I couldn’t help but imagine its beauty once the leaves fully change, especially since there are a few wooden bridges too. I can’t wait to go back with my camera and capture fall.

  2. I first discovered the flavor combination of apples + chocolate when studying abroad in the Calvados region of Normandy, France. I LOVE it, and can't wait to try this recipe!

  3. Not at all tired of desserts for two but I will not make this one as chocolate chip cookies are not my favorite and I don't particularly like mixing chocolate with fruit for dessert. SO......I think I will put sugar cookie dough from a tube on top and see how that works OR an oat meal cookie dough (my favorite)

  6. Cookies as crumble? Fabulous idea, Carla! Clearly I need to get out more because I don't think I've seen that yet. Being the dessert queen, Liz probably knows about this so it's just me.
