Holiday Recipe~Grandma McAfee’s Blackberry Cobbler! 

Okay if anyone was to ask me what my favorite cobbler is, I would say Black Berry. Of course with some vanilla ice cream ❤️. 
This recipe was submitted by Natasha McAfee! 
This next one is from my husband’s late Grandma McAfee. I never personally had hers, but was told that it was one of her signature recipes. The pictures are from when the kids and I made it awhile back, and we used fresh blackberries from the pasture instead of canned.


Yummy!!!!! Who’s ready for this?

Box of Vanilla Wafers

4 or 5 bananas

1-1/2 sticks butter

6 egg yolk

3 cups sugar

6tbls flour

1-1/2 teaspoon salt

1-qt half and half

1-pint whipping cream

2-cup milk

2-teaspoon vanilla
I melt butter in heavy sauce pan and remove from heat

—meanwhile I combine sugar, flour, salt.

I beat the egg yolks up and then combine the sugar mixture, butter, and egg yolks

Stirring them to a well mixed paste
Over medium heat I then add the milk products –stirring constantly until it begins to thicken.

When thickened –remove from heat and stir in the vanilla
I know this is not how Betty Crocker adds eggs but this is how I do it—LOL

As this begins to cool just a tad arrange your first layer of vanilla wafers—then a layer of banana slices, now a layer of pudding,–repeat until all is layered finishing with a layer of vanilla wafers
