Berry Cookie Cobbler

Berry Cookie Cobbler
This is easy, easy, easy—delicious, delicious, delicious. You'll look and feel like a professional baker when this beautiful dessert comes out of the oven. If the filling bubbles over a bit in baking, leave it (it adds a mouthwatering appeal). I let it cool just a little and serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Yum.Serves 8
