Strawberry Cobbler

I had some strawberries to use up and found this recipe at Allrecipes.com. I think this is one of my  new favorite desserts, it is D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!!! I put milk on mine, just like I do my shortcake, but it would be great with cool whip too.

My only suggestion with this is to follow the directions carefully so you don't end up with a soupy cobbler. I used the full cup of water but added 1 1/2 Tbsp-2 Tbsp of Cornstarch. Make sure to cook it until it is super thick..it will get there, even if it seems like it's taking a while! Also, be sure to stir constantly.
