🫐 Blueberry Cobbler with Biscuit Topping and Chocolate Garnish
Ingredients
(Serves 6–8)
For the filling:
-
4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
-
½ cup granulated sugar
-
2 tbsp cornstarch
-
1 tsp lemon juice
-
½ tsp vanilla extract
-
Pinch of salt
For the biscuit topping:
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
¼ cup granulated sugar
-
1 ½ tsp baking powder
-
¼ tsp salt
-
5 tbsp cold butter, cubed
-
⅓ cup milk (plus extra if needed)
For the chocolate garnish:
-
¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
-
1 tsp butter or cream (optional, for smooth drizzle)
Instructions
1. Prepare the filling
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a mixing bowl, toss blueberries with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
-
Pour the mixture into a greased 8×8-inch (or similar) baking dish.
2. Make the biscuit topping
-
In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Stir in milk until a soft dough forms. Add a bit more milk if too dry.
3. Assemble and bake
-
Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough evenly over the blueberry filling (it doesn’t have to cover completely).
-
Bake 30–35 minutes, until biscuits are golden and the blueberry filling is bubbling.
-
Let cool for 5–10 minutes.
4. Add chocolate garnish
-
Melt chocolate with butter or cream in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
-
Drizzle melted chocolate over the warm cobbler.
5. Serve
-
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
💡 Tips
-
For extra flavor, add ½ tsp cinnamon or nutmeg to the biscuit dough.
-
Frozen blueberries work fine — no need to thaw.
-
For a crispier top, sprinkle a little sugar on the biscuit before baking.
-
Chocolate garnish can also be piped into a decorative pattern for presentation.
If you want, I can give you a shortcut “one-bowl” version that combines the biscuit topping ingredients into a quick drop-topping for even faster prep. Do you want me to share that version?
