The First Post

OK, so I decided that the first post for the blog had to be a recipe.  Why?  Well, because recipes have been around since the beginning of time.  Everything has a formula even if it is just in someones head.  Whether Grandma wrote it down and gave it to you or you learned it after watching her over and over again.

I chose this first recipe because I recently shared it with my friend Kim.

Blueberry Cobbler (This is a very simple and easy recipe):

• I used Biscuit Flour (about 2.5 Cups)

• Put your berries in a baking dish (I use butter flavored Pam to oil the dish) - which ever size works for the amount of berries that you have.

• Sprinkle a little sugar over them - depends on how much you want to use.

• Pour a fourth of a cup a lime juice over berries -

• Mix about two table spoons of corn starch with 1/4 cup of hot water - pour over berries.

• Mix the flour with about a 1/2 tspn of baking powder - sift and mix well.

• Add a stick of room temp butter to flour - using a fork - mix the butter into the flour until it is crumbly.

• Then add the sugar, a pinch of cinnamon (depends of your taste) and enough milk (about 1 1/2 cups) to make the mixture thick yet still pourable.

• Cover berries with batter.

• Sprinkle a little more sugar on top of batter.

• Place in a Preheated 350 degree oven and bake until done - about 30 to 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted into dough comes out clean.

• Let cool for at least 15 minutes - then enjoy with or without ice cream!

Like I said - this is a very simple recipe and is amazing delicious - especially with fresh berries.

I do hope you enjoy.
