What is a cobbler?
A cobbler is an easy dessert made by filling a large dish with a fruit filling and then topping it with biscuit or dumpling batter. As the cobbler bakes, the batter on top turns golden brown and soaks up some of the juices from the fruit below. Cobblers are often topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and the result is absolutely fantastic.
