Notes
To enhance the flavor of your cobbler, consider using a mix of slightly underripe and ripe blackberries for a perfect balance of tartness and sweetness. You can also sprinkle a little extra sugar on top before baking for a caramelized finish. Make sure to serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate dessert experience.
