How To Make It:

Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In one large bowl, mix ½ cup of the sugar, flour, salt and baking powder together and then cut in the cold butter until the flour mixture looks crumbly.
Next, stir in the boiling water into the flour mixture until it is moist evenly.
In a different bowl, mix the cold water and cornstarch together until dissolved.
Next, add the remaining sugar, lemon juice and blackberries, then pour in a large seasoned cast iron skillet.
Bring the berry mixture to a boil, constantly stirring so as to avoid burning.
The next step in the blackberry cobbler recipe is placement of the dough.
Take the berry mixture off the heat and drop spoonfuls of dough onto the top of the hot berry mixture, placing with an even hand.
Bake for approximately 20 – 30 minutes until the dough turns golden brown.

This Christmas Dessert Recipe Serves 8.

While fresh blackberries are the best for a blackberry cobbler recipe, you can use frozen berries as well. The key is to defrost what you need and pat dry to remove excess moisture. Vanilla ice cream or whipped topping is a favorite addition to a fresh out of the oven blackberry cobbler recipe too.
