  1. everything i’ve read about cast iron cooking/baking says to preheat the skillet before baking, but your instructions don’t say to do this – should the skillet be preheated?

    • Recommend sticking with strawberries, blackberries, or raspberries. Heavier fruit is likely to sink to the bottom.

  2. I really wanted to like this. It’s beautiful and the flavor is good but it came out doughy and greasy. I cooked it for the whole 45 minutes.

  3. Delicious and very easy to make. The cobbler part came out fluffy with nice crisp edges and the dollops of cream cheese were just enough. Definitely will make again!

  4. I just made this! I did a full 8oz of cream cheese and about a 1/4 milk in th cream cheese to thin it out. Spread it over the strawberries. It was perfect!
