| 4 | tablespoons butter |
| 1 | cup milk |
| 2 | cups all-purpose flour |
| 4 | teaspoons baking powder |
| 1 | teaspoon salt |
| 3 | cups fresh berries |
| 1 1/2 | cups granulated sugar (for topping) |
| 3 | tablespoons butter (for topping) |
| 2 1/2 | cups boiling water |
Instructions:
-
Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking pan and set aside.
-
Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream together 4 tablespoons of butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Incorporate Milk: Slowly add 1 cup of milk to the creamed butter and sugar mixture while mixing on low speed until well combined.
-
Sift Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 4 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet mixture, a couple of tablespoons at a time, mixing until you achieve a smooth batter. The batter should be thick and resemble a paste.
-
Assemble Cobbler: Transfer the batter into the greased baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Arrange the fresh berries on top of the batter.
-
Top with Sugar and Butter: Sprinkle the remaining 1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar over the berries. Dot the top of the cobbler with 3 tablespoons of butter.
-
Add Boiling Water: Carefully pour 2 1/2 cups of boiling water over the top of the cobbler.
-
Bake: Place the assembled cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the berries are bubbling.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, and savor the delightful flavors of this classic dessert.
