Hello,
I am not sure of the card number I am looking for. I know it is a dessert. It is a blackberry cobbler type of dessert. I do believe you had to sprinkle sugar on the top before baking. I lost my card and now blackberry season is around the corner. Thanks so much.

FRESH BLACKBERRY COBBLER

-------------------

1 qt. fresh or frozen
blackberries

3 to 4 c. sugar

3/4 c. flour

2 c. water

1/2 stick margarine

Cook blackberries, sugar, water and margarine
for 15 to

20 minutes on medium heat. While cooking, mix
flour with 1 cup

(cold) water. Mix well until smooth. Pour
blackberries in

large 13 x 9-inch pan or baking dish. Add mixed
paste and stir

until smooth. Using the basic cobbler crust, put
dough on top

and side of dish over berries. Punch holes in
top crust and

add pats of margarine (about 1/2 stick).
Sprinkle with plenty

of sugar. Bake in 350 degrees oven until medium
brown. Great with or

without vanilla ice cream.

Basic Crust For Cobbler:

2 c. plain flour

3/4 c. Crisco

5 Tbsp. ice water

1 tsp. salt

pinch of baking powder

Freeze Crisco for 20 to 30 minutes. Put water in
there

also. Have very cold. Mix all with mixer or food
processor

well. Roll out on well floured wax paper.

Tip For Easy Handling: Put rolling pin down on
edge of

crust. Roll crust over rolling pin. Then unfold
over filling.

Add plenty of pats of butter and sprinkle top with lots of sugar.

Punch holes in top of crust.
