Strawberry Cobbler With Sugar Cookie Crust Food

STRAWBERRY COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a large (10-inch) cast-iron skillet.
• Stir together the strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla in a medium bowl. Set aside to allow the strawberries to macerate while making the biscuit dough.
• Stir together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Press the cubed butter into the flour with your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Gradually mix in the half-and-half with a rubber spatula until a wet shaggy dough forms.
• Pour the macerated strawberries into the prepared skillet, then drop large spoonfuls of the biscuit dough on top, leaving some space between each. Sprinkle the coarse sugar on top of the dough and place the skillet onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream.

VERY BERRY SUGAR COOKIE COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• In large bowl, mix berries, pie filling, sugar and cinnamon.
• Transfer fruit mixture to 9 x 13 baking dish.
• Crumble cookie dough over fruit, covering thickly and completely.
• Bake uncovered until cookie crust is golden and crisp and juices are bubbly, about 45 minutes.

PEACH COBBLER WITH SUGAR COOKIE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine peaches, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
• Toss to coat evenly, and pour into a 2 quart baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes(I cooked filling on top of stove until thickened).
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Blend in butter with your fingertips, or a pastry blender, until mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Stir in water until just combined.
• Remove peaches from oven, and drop spoonfuls of topping over them.
• Sprinkle entire cobbler with the sugar and cinnamon mixture.
• I sprinkled only a little bit, since it was turning the top too brown for my taste.
• Bake until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.
