Blackberry Cobbler

Mmm, sooooo good!!! The kids were SUPER excited to try this since they helped picked the berries!

Dust berries with sugar and cinnamon


Mix together the water and cornstarch until smooth


Add cornstarch mixture to berries


Cook until it comes to a boil


Pour the blackberries in an 8 x 8 inch square pan, then dot with butter


So instead of "cutting in" (like taking butter slices and dropping it in the flour and use a pastry blender to cut it in....) I melted mine til it was almost completely melted, then stirred it up. Worked just fine and was a bit easier! :)


Ta-Da!!! :)


Then you add the milk and it is kinda lumpy as you can see


Drop it over your berry mixture by the spoonfuls


All done!


Ok, so you can't really see the biscuit over the berries, but it's in there!


Added some homemade whipping cream!


And then I got adventurous, not pretty enough for a restaurant, but hey, I can try and play right?
