Echo member Ruth Haffly makes a mean pecan pie - which she did once
for an echo picnic. Other than rhubarb pie I tend to favour fruit pies.
And blackberry cobbler.  Bv)=

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Old Fashion Blackberry Cobbler
Categories: Pastry, Fruits, Citrus, Desserts
     Yield: 11 servings

     5 c  Blackberries
     1 c  Softened butter
 1 1/2 c  Sugar
     2 ts Vanilla
     1 c  Milk
     2 tb Lemon juice
     2 c  Sifted A-P flour
   1/4 ts Salt
     2 ts Baking powder
     1 c  Sugar
     2 tb Cornstarch
   3/4 c  Boiling water
          Whipped cream; for garnish

 Set oven @ 375ºF/190ºC.

 Lightly spray a 9" X 13" baking pan w/ cooking spray. In
 a large bowl, cream the butter, 1-1/2 cups sugar,
 vanilla, lemon juice, milk and salt until well blended.

 Stir in flour until just blended. Spoon blackberries
 into bottom of pan. Pour or spoon batter over berries.
 With a rubber spatula gently spread batter to cover
 berries.

 In another bowl whisk together remaining sugar and the
 cornstarch. Sprinkle evenly over top of batter. Pour
 boiling water over cornstarch mix, evenly. Gently stir
 it up a bit. Bake for 40 minutes or until top is crispy
 looking, ( don't worry, the inside will be nice and
 soft.)

 Top the servings of cobbler with whipped cream.

 UDD NOTE: I use Reddi-Whip from a can
