Try These Blackberry Desserts

Share this post:

Although blackberries are sometimes passed over as less tasty than blueberries and raspberries, their supermarket neighbors, they are just as delicious and nutritious .  All berries are rich in antioxidants, and the blackberry is not different.  They are often recommended as a treatment for diarrhea and mild infections.  Like other berries, they have been used in anti-aging treatments.  The ancient value in blueberries, though, is their rich flavor.  Blackberries make great desserts, from the classic to the unique.

A variety of blackberry desserts can be made easily at home.  Blackberry brownie cobbler combines the tartness of the berry with the sweetness of milk chocolate.

Ingredients:

1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup butter, cut into several pieces
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
4 cups fresh blackberries, sweetened and thickened
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup flour

Directions:

Heat oven to 350F.

Melt chocolate and butter together. Spray a 13×9 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Pour berries in the bottom of the dish. Whisk together sugar, eggs and vanilla extract in a bowl. Whisk in melted chocolate. Stir in flour and nuts.

Pour the batter over the berries in the baking dish, smooth with spatula. Bake until a wooden pick inserted into center of brownie comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
