STRAWBERRY COBBLER!!


This was our harvest for one day.  We originally started out garden out with four plants and within a couple of years they have grown greatly!  Our strawberry patch has been out of control producing fruit this year!  Last year we hardly got anything off of them and this year it has been crazy!!  I am at the point that I don't want to see another strawberry for a long time!  I have already made freezer jam with sure-jell.  And trust me we have enough to get us through the next year!  Strawberries were still popping up so I figured why not try some cobbler!?!  I found a recipe that called for a cake mix and a can of sprite with frozen fruit and decided to give it a shot.  I cute up all of my berries and put them in a 9x13 pan.  I sprinkled an entire box white cake mix over the entire top of the berries.  You then dump a can of sprite on top of it all.  DO NOT MIX IT!!!  It may look weird, but it will really turn out okay!  If you mix it up, it turns out cakey.  I used an entire can of sprite zero and found it to cause the strawberries to have too much liquid.  Next time I will use maybe 1/2 a can to 3/4 a can of sprite.  It was a hit with the kids and the husband....and we all know that this is what matters!  Enjoy!  It is about to be cherry season for me now!
