Ingredients:
Cooking spray
1 (16-ounce) bag (2 cups) frozen blueberries (keep frozen until ready to use)
1 1/2 cups sugar, divided
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup milk (regular, lowfat or skim)
Ice cream, for plating, optional
Blueberries, for garnish, optional
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9 by 12-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the blueberries and 1/2 cup of the sugar. Toss to combine and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup sugar, the flour, and baking powder.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and milk together until smooth. Gradually beat in the flour mixture until smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, then scatter the blueberries over the batter, letting them sink in, without mixing. Bake until the top is golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. Spoon the cobbler into bowls and top with ice cream and/or blueberries, if using.

Baking for a Soldier
I have participated in a couple Baking Gals projects for servicemen who I did not know. I found this to be such a rewarding project. We just had a soldier from from church to get deployed. I thought that it would be a great idea to do this for someone that I actually knew. Therefore, I spoke at one of my United Methodist Women meetings about how awesome that I thought it would be to do a project similar to the Baking Gal's but on a smaller more local level. They agreed to participate. Tomorrow our boxes will be blessed at church and then they will be off to their intended soldiers on Monday. I am so excited to see this happen. I hope that we can continue to do this for local soldiers.
Here are some pictures of my box as I put it together:
Tomorrow I will post pictures of the Blessing!!!!
