Instructions
- Spread berries in a greased 8 inch square pan.
- Cream shortening and 3/4 cup sugar well.
- Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together.
- Add alternately with milk to creamed mixture. Batter will be thick.
- Spread batter over berries.
- Combine remaining sugar and cornstarch together then sprinkle evenly over batter. *NOTE* This is a juicy cobbler but if you want the berries and sauce to be thicker add an extra 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to the remaining sugar.
- Pour boiling water over all. Do not mix.
- Bake at 350* for 30-45 minutes, until golden brown and toothpick inserted into middle comes out clean. Serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream or ice cream if desired. (Doubled recipe fits into a 9x13 pan, but must bake 20-30 mins longer than normal).
