BERRY-COBBLER - Berry cobbler

This recipe was lifted from TV Guide's series of recipes
from television stars. It is similar to the recipe for
Berry Pudding found in Edna Staebler's Food That Really
Schmecks cookbook. I will list a few variations on it at
the end.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 6)
1/2 cup sugar (for sprinkling)
4 cups berries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup sugar (for the batter)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup butter (softened)
nutmeg

PROCEDURE
(1) Preheat oven to 375 deg. F.
(2) Sprinkle 1/2 cup of sugar on the berries, and
place them in the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish.
(3) Combine the remaining dry ingredients (flour,
sugar, baking powder and salt).
(4) Add the milk and softened butter, and beat well.
(5) Spoon the batter over the berries. Sprinkle some nutmeg on top.
(6) Bake for about 45 minutes.

NOTES
You can use pretty well any type of berry for the base. A
favourite of mine is a combination of strawberries, raspber-
ries, and blueberries.

The base of this turns out to be a bit thin and liquidy. If
you strain the juice from the fruit, add a couple of table-
spoons of flour to the juice, and then pour the juice over
the fruit in the baking dish, the base will be semi-firm.

You do not need to sprinkle the full 1/2 cup of sugar on the
berries; with sweeter berries, much less will often suffice.

If you would like a sweeter, candy-like batter, try adding
more sugar to the batter. I wouldn't recommend putting more
than 1 1/4 cups of sugar into the batter, though-the crust
of the batter will be very candy-like, but the centre of the
batter will not procgiy bake if you do.

SUGAR-FREE CHEESECAKE

Ingredients:
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 1/3 cups milk
1 package (4 serving size) sugar-free vanilla instant pudding
Fresh fruit (My favorite - and everybody else's favorite - is
fresh strawberries but I also like fresh blueberries)
1 prepared graham cracker pie shell - on my diabetic diet I am
allowed a small amount of graham crackers but if you
cannot have graham crackers just pour the mixture
into a plain pie pan

To Prepare:
Beat cream cheese until smooth. Slowly add milk, beating until
creamy. Add pudding mix; beat until smooth and thickened. Pour
half of this mixture into graham cracker pie shell (or plain pie
pan if preferred). Place a layer of fresh fruit on top of this
mixture (if using strawberries chop the berries into small pieces
- if using blueberries I place whole berries on mixture). Pour
the other half of the mixture on top of the fruit, completely
covering the fruit. Top with whole fresh fruit. Refrigerate and
enjoy.

This recipe can be made quickly and is a favorite dessert of mine.
