SWEET SATURDAY

EVENING EVERYONE
Hockey night in Canada... Watching the game and enjoying homemade Appys.. I made the Taco Cupcakes from yesterdays recipe ..I forgot how good these are.. The only sad part about tonight is that my team(Leafs) is losing to Dan's team(Montreal)  :O(
Those of you who have been following me for the last year know that I usually call my Saturday posting Shopping Saturday but I have changed it to SWEET SATURDAY .. hope you do not mind but posting all the shopping deals involved quite a bit of work and was not sure how many were really using it.. A lot of my followers do not live in the area of where all the deals are.. So the best advice I can give about the shopping is that Walmart always price matches so take all the stores flyers with you. Since I always post a dessert on Saturday I thought this would be a SWEET name..
PEACH AND CINNAMON
COBBLER
Peach and Cinnamon Cobbler

Ingredients:
Butter for coating dish

FILLING:
6 cups peaches, halved, pitted, and sliced 1/4 inch thick
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup quick-cooking tapioca
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Pinch salt

TOPPING:
1 2/3 cups all-purpose ß our, plus additional
for dusting
3 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
2/3 cup heavy cream, plus additional for brushing
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 2 1/2-quart baking dish. In a medium bowl, stir together the filling ingredients. Pour filling into the prepared dish; set aside.

For the topping, in a food processor or large bowl, pulse or whisk together the 1 2/3 cups flour, the sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pulse or cut in the butter until the
mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Slowly add the 2/3 cup cream, mixing until the dough just comes together. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat together. Form the dough into 2-inch balls. Flatten balls gently with the palm of your hand.

Evenly arrange the dough rounds on top of the filling. Brush a little cream over the rounds. Bake about 1 hour or until the biscuits are golden and the filling is bubbling.

Talk to you tomorrow..
ENJOY
