Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and butter a 10-inch cast-iron skillet.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, 1 cup sugar, the melted butter and milk in a large bowl. Beat well, then pour the batter into the buttered cast-iron skillet. Top with the fresh blackberries. Sprinkle with the remaining cup sugar, then pour the boiling water over the top.
• Bake until the filling is bubbling and the cobbler topping is golden, 35 to 40 minutes. Pour sassy sauce over the top before serving.
• Whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and the heavy cream in a saucepan over low heat until combined and warm. Spike with rum. Pour over the cobbler.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• In a large bowl, mix the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in 1/4 cup boiling water just until mixture is evenly moist.
• In a separate bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in cold water. Mix in remaining 1 cup sugar, lemon juice, and blackberries. Transfer to a cast iron skillet, and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Drop dough into the skillet by spoonfuls. Place skillet on the foil lined baking sheet.
• Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until dough is golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Melt the butter in a 10 or 12-inch cast-iron skillet.
• Add blueberries (if using frozen, let fruit thaw at room temperature first) and 2 tablespoons of the sugar.
• Stir gently and cook just until the berries begin to soften. If mixture seems at all dry, add the water.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the milk and stir to make a thick batter.
• Spoon batter onto the fruit.
• Drag a spoon or spatula through batter to make streaks of white and blue. DON'T mix thoroughly.
• Bake until a tester inserted in the biscuit top comes out clean and the fruit is bubbling around the edges, about 20 minutes.
• Serve with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
• Note: You can make this with fresh or frozen peaches or other berries as well.
• If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, you can use an ovenproof dish. You can heat the butter and fruit in a skillet and then scrape them into a baking dish to continue.
• The cobbler is best served warm directly from the pan. If you have leftovers or plan to keep for a while, transfer to a nonreactive container.

Steps:

• Build a two zone fire in a charcoal fire by placing coals on one side of the grill; leaving the other side empty. Preheat grill.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Remove from the heat, add the milk, vanilla, flour and sugar. Stir together but do not blend.
• Butter a 10 inch cast iron skillet. Put blackberries in bottom of skillet and pour batter over the top. Place skillet over indirect heat and away from coals. Close the grill lid and cook until cobbler is golden brown on top about 1 hour. Serve hot from the skillet.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Unroll one pie crust and place in bottom and up sides of 12-inch cast iron skillet. Pierce bottom and sides of crust with a fork. Bake 7 minutes; remove from oven. Increase oven temp to 400°F. In a large bowl, mix melted butter, 1 1/3 cups sugar, and flour. Put berries in bowl with butter, sugar and flour mixture. Toss until berries are covered and mixture is crumbly. Gently pour berries into skillet. Sprinkle water over berries. Unroll second pie crust over top of berries, sealing at the edges of the skillet. Scatter the small pieces of butter on top of the crust and sprinkle with 3/4 cup sugar. Cut tiny slits in top of pie crust. Bake approximately 45 minutes or until bubbly at edges and beginning to brown on top. Use pie shield or aluminum foil to keep edges of crust from burning.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Melt butter in a large cast-iron skillet or ovenproof baking dish, in the oven, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place blackberries in a large bowl. Using a potato masher, mash blackberries to release their juices. If blackberries are tart, sprinkle with sugar.
• In another large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add 1 cup sugar, milk, and vanilla extract; mix until well combined. Remove skillet from oven and add melted butter to flour mixture; stir to combine. Pour mixture into skillet and pour blackberries and their juices into the center.
• Transfer skillet to oven and bake until top is golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the batter comes out clean, about 1 hour. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature with whipped cream, creme fraiche, or ice cream.
