Strawberry Cobbler
(serves 8)
Strawberries are popular any time of year, but in summer, fruity desserts are especially welcome. This dish makes a festive and appetizing presentation for a party or family dinner. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for a special treat.
Filling Ingredients
1/2 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 cup water
32 oz. strawberries
2 Tbsp. unsweetened butter
Topping Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. sugar
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
¼ tsp. cinnamon
½ tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. unsweetened butter
¾ cup heavy whipping cream
Hull, clean, and quarter the strawberries and set aside. Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and water in saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Stir in strawberries and remove from heat. Pour mixture into greased 2-quart baking dish.
Cut 2 Tbsp. butter into small pieces and dot butter on top of fruit.
For the topping, sift together the flour, 1 Tbsp. sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in 3 Tbsp. butter. Stir in whipping cream. Mixture will be lumpy. Drop by the teaspoonful onto top of berries.
Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown.

Thank you for the recipe I always make peach cobbler so this will be a welcome change
It truly sounds delicious. We have a bounty of fresh peaches here from local growers. I could eat peaches at every meal! Hope to try your cobbler soon. Maggie T
brain burp. I like strawberry cobble and peach cobbler. I've had peach cobbler on the brain lately so that must be what overrode my typing...
Maggie, I love peach cobbler. That dessert is my favorite.
