Recipe Ingredients

2 cups	125g / 4.4oz	Flour
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Salt
1 1/2 teaspoons	7.5ml	Sugar
1 cup	198g / 7oz	Vegetable shortening
1/2 cup	118ml	Ice water
6 cups	1422ml	Fresh blackberries
2 cups	396g / 13oz	Sugar
1/4 cup	59ml	Grand Marnier
2 tablespoons	30ml	Flour
1		Unsalted butter - cut into 1" cubes
2		Vanilla bean ice cream

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350F.

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in the shortening and work it through with your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time and work the dough until you have a smooth ball.

Wrap the dough tightly and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator and place on a lightly-floured surface. Roll the dough out until the dough is 1/8-inch thick. Divide the rolled dough in half. Place half the dough in a 9- by 9- by 2-inch square baking pan. Reserve the other half for the top of the cobbler.

In a mixing bowl, toss the blackberries with the sugar, Grand Marnier, and flour. Pour the tossed blackberries into the prepared pan. Top the blackberries with the cubed butter. Lay the reserved crust over the blackberries, tucking the edges down into the pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

Place a serving of the cobbler in a shallow bowl and serve with vanilla ice cream. Garnish with mint and powdered sugar.
