Recipe - Blackberry Cobbler 3

One fourth cup Soft butter or margarine
One half cup Sugar
1 cup Unsifted regular allpurpose
flour
2 teaspoon Baking powder
1/8 teaspoon Salt
One half cup Milk
1 cn (1lb) fruit, cut in small
pieces, or berries or
fresh cooked fruit to
equal 1 lb.
Sugar to taste (for topping)

Cream butter and sugar until smooth and well blended. Sift the flour with
baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture a little at a time alternately
with the milk, beating just until the thick batter is smooth. Spread the
batter evenly in a greased 9inch square baking pan (it will rise to the
top while baking).

Pour berries or fruit and their liquid over batter. Sprinkle with sugar to
taste. Bake in 350 deg. oven for about 1 hour or until crust is golden
brown.

I live in wild blackberry country (Hi, Dot) so that's what we use. We also
put a little cinnamon in the sugar. You just spread the berries over the
top of the batter and the batter rises up around it and the berries sink.
We also triple the recipe (teenage boys). Oh I don't sift either just
stir well.
