I made Colleen Sowa's "Mile High Strawberry Pie" she has posted on here & loved , loved, loved it! So, I have dewberries & blackberries growing all over our 120 acres & I wanted something just a little different than the normal blackberry cobbler. So... I thought...why not? They taste good fresh too. So, I revised Colleen's recipe some & came up with this. I hope you like it as much as hubby & I do. It is great! Just like the strawberry version.
