Blackberry Cobbler

Ingredient amounts in purple are for an 8x8 pan
1/2 cup butter (3 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons)
2 cups self-rising flour (3/4 cup and 2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons)
2 cups white sugar (3/4 cup and 2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons)
2 cups milk (3/4 cup and 2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons)
3 1/2 cups blackberries (1-3/4 cups)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Once oven temperature is reached melt butter in a 9x13 (8x8) inch baking pan.
In a medium bowl stir together the flour, sugar and milk; batter will be slightly lumpy.
Pour mixture on top of melted butter in baking pan.
Do not mix butter and mixture together.
Drop blackberries into batter; if more crust is desired add less blackberries.
Bake in preheated oven for one hour or until golden brown.

I didn't have any self-rising flour so I made my own
Homemade Self-Rising Flour - Substitute
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/3 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 teaspoon salt
Combine all ingredients and use in place of self rising flour.
