I love cobblers and this one was no exception. The berries made a nice chunky sauce and the crust was light tender and with the prefect amount of crumble to it. I did cut the recipe in half using egg beaters to get half an egg and baked in a 4x4 for the full time. Did serve without ice cream but would recommend adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream as it would push this yummy cobbler right over the top. This will be enjoyed again before the summer is out. Thanks for the post.

This is a fabulous 5 star dessert and not too sweet. I used a mixture of blueberries and strawberries and served with a drizzle of cream and it went down well on a blah-not-hot-at all summers day.
