Blackberry Cobbler

This isn't the best thing for you to eat but my husband asked for it so I made it.  I'm currently on a diet so I didn't even get to taste it but it sure looked, and smelled, good!

Blackberry Cobbler

3 cups fresh or frozen blackberries

1 cup sugar

1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

3 Tb cornstarch

1 cup cold water

1 Tb butter

Biscuit Topping:

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 Tb sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup cold butter

1/2 cup milk

In large saucepan, combine blackberries, sugar, and cinnamon.  Cook and stir until mixture comes to a boil.  Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into fruit mixture.  Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Pour into greased 8 inch square baking dish.  Dot with butter.

For topping, in a small bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.  Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Stir in milk just until moistened.  Drop by tablespoonfuls onto hot berry mixture. 

Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees, for 30-35 minutes or until filling is bubbly and topping is golden brown.  Serve warm with whipped topping or ice cream.
