Blackberry Cobbler Delight

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Blackberry Cobbler Delight.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a toasty 450°F (230°C). While the oven warms up, grab a 9x13-inch baking dish and give it a light greasing to prevent sticking. Now, in a mixing bowl, combine the luscious blackberries with the quick-cooking tapioca and 1/2 cup of sugar. Stir gently until everything is well blended, then pour this berry mixture into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. In another bowl, mix the biscuit baking mix with the milk until just combined. This will create a lovely dough. Using a spoon, drop dollops of this dough over the blackberry filling, covering it as best as you can. Pop the dish into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 15 minutes, allowing the berries to bubble and the topping to rise. While that’s happening, take a small saucepan and bring the water and the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, stir in the butter and vanilla extract, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. This will create a delicious vanilla syrup. After 15 minutes, carefully remove the cobbler from the oven and drizzle the warm vanilla syrup evenly over the top. Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the syrup has evaporated and the topping is golden brown. Once done, let it cool slightly before serving, and enjoy this delightful dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat!
