Cobbler recipe

as promised, here's the recipe that i used for our cobbler....u can use any kind of fresh fruit u'd like....we used cherries & blackberries since that's what we had growing in our yard.....my mom uses this recipe & makes THE BEST peach cobbler ever....even tho i followed the same recipe, her's just turns out better! it's hard to get that perfect amount of fruit in there.....not too much & not too little....i guess it just depends on how fruity u like ur cobbler too ;0)

cut up approximately 2 cups of fresh fruit
& stir in 1 cup of sugar
these are quart bags - we had a LOT of cherries (u can tell the difference in the 2 trees)....it took FOREVER pitting all of them! i tripled the recipe & made 3 cobblers....one for home, one for work & one for our downstairs neighbor - who shares the trees with us

in a deep baking/casserole dish, mix together:
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/3 tsp. salt

wisk in:
2/3 cup milk

then melt 1 stick of butter and pour over top of the batter (yes, i said 1 whole stick! ~lol~)

then, drop in the fruit.....again, go as generous or skimpy as u'd like.....the fruit will fall to the bottom of the batter, so u just have to judge the best u can

then bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour


it's done when it looks like this.....the batter will rise to the top of the pan/dish, get golden brown, and the fruit goodness will start bubbling through....check the 'cake' part with a fork to make sure that it's done all the way through to the fruit bottom


while it's still warm from the oven, plate a generous portion (come on, go for it!) & top with vanilla ice cream.......mmmmm, good!
