Peach Cobbler

This recipe comes from Southern Living and has proven to be a winner in our house. It's quick, easy and never fails to draw people back for a second helping.

Peach Cobbler

1/2 cup butter

1 cup self-rising flour

2 cups sugar, divided

1 cup milk

4 cups fresh peaches, washed, peeled and cubed

Melt butter in a 13x9x2-inch Pyrex dish or something similar. I simply put the butter in the dish, place it in the oven and let it melt as the oven warms to 375 degrees.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, 1 cup of sugar and the milk. Mix well. Set aside.

Place the peaches and remaining sugar in a boiler. Heat on the stove just until boiling.

To assemble, pour the flour mixture into the dish with the melted butter. Do NOT stir. Then spoon the peaches onto the top of that. Be sure to spoon it over the flour mixture. Pouring will cause it all to separate and your peaches will pool up in one place.

Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until browned.

Serve warm with Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream.
