Indulge in the nostalgic simplicity of "Cupa Cupa Cup," a classic dessert recipe that's as easy to make as it is delicious. With just a few pantry staples—flour, sugar, milk, and a touch of butter—this rustic fruit cobbler comes together in minutes, making it the perfect choice for busy weeknights or last-minute entertaining. Fresh, juicy fruit like peaches, berries, or cherries pairs beautifully with the buttery golden crust that forms as it bakes, delivering a balance of sweetness and texture in every bite. The charm of this recipe lies in its "no-fuss" technique: no mixing or stirring after the batter and fruit layer are assembled, letting the oven work its magic. Serve it warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a dessert that feels like a hug on a plate. Perfectly simple and undeniably satisfying, this recipe is a timeless crowd-pleaser you'll want to make again and again.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Once melted, pour the butter into a baking dish (around 9x9 inches or similar).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the milk to the dry mixture and stir until just combined. If desired, stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.
Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir — the butter will rise up along the edges as it bakes, creating a delicious crust.
Evenly distribute the fresh fruit over the top of the batter. Again, do not stir; the fruit will naturally sink into the batter as it bakes.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and the edges are crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
