Easy Cherry Cobbler - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (16 oz.) can red tart pie cherries
2 c. sugar, divided
1/2 c. butter or margarine
1 c. self-rising flour
3/4 c. milk

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Combine the cherries and 1 cup sugar in a medium size bowl and stir to mix.
Melt the butter or margarine in a 2 to 3 quart baking dish. Combine the remaining 1 cup sugar with the flour and milk. Beat well. Pour over the melted butter. Then pour the cherry mixture over the batter. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until top is delicately browned. As cobbler bakes the batter rises to the top. If you like a cobbler with less juice, you can drain the cherries before combining them with the sugar.
