Blackberry Cobbler

4 cups of blackberries
1/2 cup of sugar
2 teaspoons of lemon juice

1 cup of all purpose flour
2 1/2 tablespoons of sugar
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
6 tablespoons of unbuttered salt - cold
1/3 cup of light cream

2 tablespoons of brown sugar to lightly cover the top of your cobbler 

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

 Grease a 9 inch square baking dish (or a rectangular dish with the same area - 81 square inches). 

Place the blackberries into the bottom of the dish then sprinkle the 1/2 cup of sugar and lemon juice over the berries. Put to the side.

Add all dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and whisk them together.

 Add the butter and mix with your fingers until butter is fully incorporated with the dry ingredients.

 Slowly mix in the light cream while mixing the dough with a fork. When a soft dough forms stop mixing.

 Frankly this is what an electric mixing bowl is for.

Take spoonfuls of dough and drop onto the berry mixture making an uneven bumpy top.

 Sprinkle the brown sugar on top. 

Bake in your oven for approximately 25 - 30 minutes. let cool for 30 minutes.

 Serve with either whipped cream or ice cream, But plain is good too :).
