Easy to make, and the topping is really great! I used unsweetened coconut, which we were very happy with.

We really liked your take on blackberry cobbler. Trying a coconut top was a challenge, but it turned out great. Thanks for turning us on to a new and yummy take on blackberry cobbler. made for the newest tag game.
