I am now living in Beijing, China. Kelani is in university in Louisiana. So many things to add to the recipe box.

Cherry Cobbler, 2nd edition

1 kilo (2 pounds) fresh cherries, clean and take seeds out (cherry pitters are good for cherries and olives)
1 cup flour
1 cup brown sugar (otherwise mix white sugar with 1.5 tablespoons molasses- I use mulberry molasses)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
60 grams (or 4 ounces) butter (a little soft), cut into tablespoon or smaller pieces (this is a correction, on first post I wrote too much)
Freshly grated nutmeg

Heat oven to 180 C or 350 F. Lightly butter the bottom of a 18 X 25 cm pan (that in inches is a 8 by 10?). Place cleaned pitted cherries evenly in the bottom.

In a food processor, you may do this by hand if you want, place flour, sugar (and molasses), cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter. Mix until it forms small crumb like pieces. Put this over the cherries, evenly.

Cook in the oven for 45-50 minutes until brown and bubbling. Excellent with vanilla ice cream.
