About
This cobbler is from central Texas, and seems to be different from the crusty or crumbly-topped cobblers found elsewhere in the US. This is more like a buttery cake filled with blackberries. You can also use peaches for this recipe - they're perfect too.
The crust tastes better if you let the butter brown a little bit. Salted butter gives it a nice flavor on the crust, but if you don’t use salted butter, it’s no major loss.
