Fruit Cobbler Carolina
"An easy and tasty southern dessert. If you use fresh fruit instead of pie fillings, simply cut it up in bite size pieces if not using berries. This will be your go to dish for a quick idea when weeknights, covered dish invites, and holiday parties are calling. Bon Appetit"

This is a very simple recipe to prepare. I don't normally buy self-rising flour but picked up a small amount at the bulk store to do this particular recipe. The cake portion did not rise at all so I am thinking the flour may not have been too fresh, and maybe the leaveners had lost their ummmph. Also, when the cooking time was done, I had a lot of butter still floating on the top of the dish, so I spooned off about a 1/4 C of butter. Again, this could be due to the fact that the cake did not rise properly. It still tasted fine, but was obviously heavier than it should have been. I will certainly try it again with a new bag of flour. Made for Spring Pick A Chef 2011.
