This recipe was an AWFUL recipe if you were looking for a cobbler recipe. However if you are looking for a muffin or bread recipe this is a GREAT recipe. You will need more time than was designated, I needed 10 extra minutes. I also substituted frozen blackberries for the raspberries and the recipe still turned out ok.

Here's a tip, don't use frozen berries. It got soggy in the places where the fruit had thawed while baking. The dough tasted great, but the baked taste was a little lacking for me. Perhaps it would work better with sweetened fresh berries.

This was nothing like a cobbler. It should be called Berry Coffeecake.

This was by far the worst dessert that I've ever made! I cannotr believe that it has managed to get 4 stars! It was raw in the middle and that was after letting it cook for an additional 20 minutes than the recipe called for. Also, if you are looking for a "cobbler" this is NOT it! This is pretty much just a glorified muffin. Bottom line... I was totally embarrassed and dissapointed when I served this dessert on Christmas Eve. I couldn't even eat it and told my guests that it wouldn't hurt my feelings if they didn't like it. If you are looking for a nice cobbler recipe... keep lookin'

After reading other reviews I was prepared for 'cake.' What I got was a dessert bread with a strong taste of baking powder. Surprisingly, I only needed the stated 35 minutes to cook. Perhaps it's an altitude thing. This recipe needs more tweaking to be worth my time.

We had just picked a quart of blackberries (4 cups) so we doubled this recipe. I wanted more of a cobbler so I dumped the berries in a 9x13 pan and then put the crust mixture on top. I sprinkled some sugar on it and baked it for almost 55 minutes. It was absolutely delicious and gone in 2 days!

This is good, but it's definitely not a cobbler. I used blueberries, and it was just a giant blueberry muffin.

Excellent recipe. Very moist and not as sinful as a regular cobbler. I used fresh wild blackberries.

This was delicious!!! I had some family coming over for a last minute visit so I needed to prepare something quick and this fit the bill. I used frozen mixed berries I purchased from the store and had left over from another recipe. And when those were not enough I added a few frozen cranberries. They all loved it. I did follow a reviewers advice and sprinkled sugar on top before baking and baking time is definitely too short. I left mine in 15 minutes longer.

Pretty easy to make. I used a combination of raspberries and blackberries and used more than the 2 cups that the recipe called for. I also just poured part of the batter over top of the fruit as I thought too much batter was made anyway.

I was actually looking for more of a cake or buckle, so when i read the reviews describing this as such i gave it a try. My family adores this recipe. It tastes like a cobbler but is a cake, it's great. I find, though, that i had to cook it almost 55 minutes... so I would advise checking it every 5 minutes after the recommended 40.

It's a great cobbler "cake" recipe. I added extra blackberries in the mix and then topped with red raspberries before baking for a decorative touch.

This is definitely more of a cake/muffin than a cobbler, but it was very good. I added blackberries, and sprinkled the top with cinnamon and sugar. Make sure it bakes long enough, I kept mine in about 10 minutes longer than the recipe called for and it was baked all the way through. Really good served warm with ice cream!

I used this with fresh marion berries; and topped with granulated sugar before placing in the oven - got rave reviews from guests, wonderful when served with fresh vanilla ice cream. Not cooked all the way through in the center - I let it cook for the full 40 minutes. Might recommend trying for an additional 5 minutes or so.

This "cobbler" is more cake-like, but DELISCIOUS!!! I love that it is quick and easy, just great for if company pops in unexpectedly! My husband LOVED it!!!

This is an awesome recipe! My whole family loved it and it was sooooo easy! I used 2 cups of frozen mixed berries and it came out excellent. I think I need to double the recipe so it will last longer next time. I agree it is more like a cake then a cobbler--but who cares! It's great! This is definately a WINNER! Thanks so much!
