Commissary Blackberry Cobbler

Bogey'sMom's Note:

I was shopping in the commissary one day when an old lady struck up a conversation with me. She saw the ingredients in my cart and asked if I was making a Banana Pudding. I told her I was, so she proceeded to give me tips and recipes for her favorite desserts to serve her husband. This is one I did try and it was delicious. I tend to adore people at both ends of the life spectrum - infants and the very elderly.

I have made this recipe for years and it is always a hit! My secret is to use a stick of cold butter and grate it evenly over the top and sprinkle with cinnamon. The butter melts quickly and results in an even brown topping. Also, I like to use a vanilla cake mix.This recipe works well with blueberries also. Fresh is best, but frozen is fine and easy to keep on hand for a quick dessert. Everyone loves this and I hate to tell them how easy it is to make!!!

What a great recipe - not to mention easy. I was skeptical, but it turned out great. I have dinner at my mother-in-law's house every Sunday . . . and I'm in charge of dessert. They'll be seeing this frequently!

While this isn't your traditional black berry cobbler, this was delicious! This reminds me of a dump cake with black berries. So good, thanks so much for sharing.
