Blackberry Cobbler with Bisquick Top (Recipe)

Remember those beautiful huge blackberries I got this summer?  

A bunch of them were used to make a cobbler like my grandma used to make... with a biscuit top.

Have I made you hungry yet?

Those were some prime blackberries!

This is a really fast topping for a cobbler.  (There is a reason it is called BISquick! LOL)

Finished.  You can see where I stretched them out a bit.

Careful as you make this... the berries really stain things!

Hot out of the oven!

The filling firmed up perfectly once it had cooled.  We were too greedy to wait!

Bisquick Blackberry Cobbler

2 lb fresh blackberries

1 T corn starch

2 T cold water

2 cups Bisquick

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup butter, melted

2 T sugar

Preheat oven to 400*F.

In large saucepan, slowly heat the 2 pounds of blackberries.  Stir gently as to not break up the berries.  They will release their juices as they cook.

Mix together the corn starch and cold water in a small bowl.  Add to cooking berries.  Boil for 1 minute.  Pour thickened fruit into a 2 quart baking dish.  Set to the side.

Into a bowl, add the Bisquick, milk, butter, and sugar.  Stir until well combined.  Drop dough by spoonfuls to cover top of fruit.  (You made need to spread them a bit with your fingers.) 

Bake for about 20 minutes; until topping is golden brown.
