Title:	BERRY COBBLER

Date:	February 2/04/2004

Description:	2 pt boysenberries ½ pt blueberries ½ pt raspberries 1/3 cup sugar 1 to 1 ½ tablespoon flour COBBLER DOUGH 1 1/2 cup flour 3/8 teaspoon salt 1 ½ tablespoon sugar 2 ¼ teaspoon baking powder 6 tablespoon unsalted butter ¾ cup whipping cream 1-1/2 quart gratin or baking dish Preheat oven to 375 F Use a mixture of any berries available to you – except strawberries. Measure 4 1/2 cups of mixed berries Gently toss them with the sugar and flour. Use the larger amount of flour if the berries are very juicy. Let stand while you make the dough. (The dry ingredients for the topping can be prepared ahead - even several days ahead and kept refrigerated.) Mix the dry ingredients for the dough, leaving out the salt if you are using salted butter. Cut in the butter until the mixture looks like coarse cornmeal. Add the cream and mix lightly until the dry ingredients are just moistened. The cream can then be added when ready to bake the cobbler. Put the berry mixture into a 1 1/2 quart gratin or baking dish. Make patties of the dough, 2 to 2 1/2 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. Arrange them over the top of the berries. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is brown and the berry juices bubble thickly around it. Serve warm with cream to pour over it. People who don't ordinarily like dessert will often eat this.
