console.log($(E.target).html())would log the html. orconsole.log(E.target.innerHTML)

You need to use $(this).html() not (E).html(). Your code should look like this:
console.log($(this).html());
Demonstration:
$(".answer").text("Here we change the text");
$(".answer").click(function() {
console.log($(this).html());
});<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.js"></script>
<div class="col answer">
some text

Since this was also posted in Javascript here's a vanilla option to do the same:
<div class="col answer">
some text
</div>
<script>
var x = document.getElementsByClassName("answer");
var y;
for (y = 0; y < x.length; y++) {
x[y].innerHTML = "Here we change the text";
}
window.onload = function() {
document.addEventListener('click', function (event) {
var target = event.target;
if(target.matches('.answer')){
console.log(target.innerHTML);
}
}, false);
}

Do you need innerHTML or text?? If you need text use .text() method.
$(".answer").text("Here we change the text" );
$(".answer").off().on('click',function() {
console.log($(this).html());
