A Valentine's Day dessert — for anytime!

Last week, I was busy sharing vintage valentines, but before February is over, I wanted to share the recipe I featured in my column for this month's issue of The Coweta Shopper. It's such a quick and easy recipe to make. Also, I served it in tiny glass goblets as a "two-bite dessert" last week to my little neighbor friends, and they loved it (and asked for seconds), so I may be adding this to my next tea party menu as well!

Pie Filling Cobbler


1/2 cup butter, melted

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 cup flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons baking powder

3/4 cup milk

1 (15-ounce) can pie filling (any flavor)


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in a 9 x 9-inch baking dish (I used a heart-shaped baking dish of a similar size). In a small bowl, mix sugar, flour, salt, and baking powder. Add milk to the dry ingredients and blend well. Pour batter over melted butter in pan. Add pie filling over the batter, dropping it by spoonfuls and evenly spacing it over the batter. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour or until golden brown.
