Two Easy Dessert Recipes

There are two cobbler-type recipes I've found in the last little while that taste wonderful and are very easy! (And relatively inexpensive...esp. if you can find blueberries on sale.) I've also made both of these recipes in a half-batch. Using only half the cake mix and saving the other half for the next time. This has worked great for our little family.

Pumpkin Cobbler

1 box yellow cake mix (save 1 cup)
1/2 cup melted butter
1 egg
--Mix together and spread into a greased cake pan.

29 oz. canned pumpkin
3 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 pinch nutmeg
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
--Mix together and spread over cake.

1 cup saved cake mix
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup chopped pecans
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup butter
--Mix together, cut in butter and sprinkle over cake.

Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until center is not wobbly.

Blueberry Buckle

1 can crushed pineapple, undrained (I drain off a little)
3 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
Less than 1 cup sugar
1 box yellow cake mix
1 cube butter
Less than 1 cup sugar

In a 9 x 13 pan, layer pineapple and then blueberries. Sprinkle sugar over fruit. Sprinkle dry cake mix over the fruit and sugar. Melt butter and drizzle over cake mix. Sprinkle sugar until covered. You can play with the amount. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. I find that letting it cool for a couple of hours is preferable so it is not soupy, but still warm.
