Blackberry Cobbler
Blackberry cobbler is a yummy dessert that is sweet, and just a bit tangy. Bursting with berry flavor, this easy-to-make dessert will be a family favorite.
Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 6 cups blackberries, 4 to 5 cups if they are large berries
- 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 stick butter
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- In the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish, pour one box of yellow cake mix.
- Spread blackberries over the top of the cake mix.
- Sprinkle on 1 to 2 tablespoons of sugar (depending upon how sweet they are).
- Pour 1 cup of water over the top of the berries and cake mix then shake the pan so water settles into the bottom. If berries aren’t very juicy, add a little more water. If they are plump, a little less.
- Cut a stick of butter into 8 pieces and spread out over the top.
- Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes.
- Slice and serve warm.
Notes
- If you’re using canned berries, reserve the water they’re packed in and use a cup of it instead of the plain water. Unless you don’t want the crust to be purple, of course.
- Cleaning fresh blackberries is easy. Much easier than cleaning some other fresh fruits. Pour the fresh juicy berries into a colander. Discard any errant leaves or stems. Set the colander in the sink and run water over the berries. Leave it there to drain while you begin the recipe.
