Recipe - Fig And Cherry Cobbler

16 California dried figs
1 No.2 can pie cherries
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
2 tablespoon Cake flour
1 cup Sugar
3 tablespoon Butter; melted
Biscuit dough

With scissors, snip off fig stems, and cut figs into small bits. In a
pudding dish, combine figs, cherries and their syrup. Mix cinnamon, cake
flour and sugar together and stir into fruit. Melt butter and stir into
fruit. Make half the amount of your favorite biscuit recipe or use
biscuit mix and be sure to add 1 Tbsp. sugar and 1 tsp. cinnamon and 3
Tbsps. more milk than the recipe calls for. Drop biscuit dough from a
teaspoon onto the fruit. Bake in a hot oven (450 F.) for 6 minutes, then
lower heat to moderate (350 F.) for about 20 minutes or until cobbler is
bubbly and biscuits are quite done. Serves 5 or 6. Extra good when
served with top milk or cream flavored with cinnamon, vanilla and
generously sweetened.
