"chocolate beet cranberry" gingerbread cobbler
I love cooking with beets. This cobbler really shows the dessert side of beets, beyond my Spiced Beet Cake. The Gingerbread Cobbler Crust is the same crust in my Candied Walnut Sweet Potato Cobbler. Both recipes are really served well by this. Enjoy this winter favorite with some creamy ice cream and your favorite warm, winter beverage.
