Quoting Michael Loo to Jim Weller <=-

4 liter (close to 1 gallon) pail of vanilla ice cream,
I gave each kid one spoon each

A great idea unless you had rabid children.

They are not rabid but can be violent if sufficiently provoked, just
like their parents.

sweet potatoes.

Note too that there are various sweetnesses; it's
not for nothing that there's been selective breeding.
I've had some that have been almost candy-sweet by
the operation of their own genes.

I have not encountered that in sweet potatoes but I have in corn and
overly sweet corn is an abomination!

Ice cream is good on apple pie. Cheddar is good on apple pie.

Somehow I don't get so turned on.

I'm not surprised by that. Consider apple pie where half the apples
are replaced with either cherries or blueberries. That's a turn on
for sure; it's so good. it's almost better than sex, Not quite
though, just close.

Title: Apple and Dried Cherry Cobbler with Buttermilk Biscuits
Categories: Pies, Fruit
Yield: 10 Servings

FILLING:
6 lg Ida red apples peeled; cored
-and sliced
1/2 c Light brown sugar
3 tb Flour
1 ts Cinnamon
1/4 ts Ground cloves
Freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 c Dried cherries
2 tb Fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 1/2 ts Grated lemon peel
3 tb Unsalted butter; cut in bits
BISCUIT TOPPING:
2 c Flour
1 tb Sugar
2 1/2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Baking soda
1/2 ts Salt
4 tb Cold unsalted butter and
2 tb Cold vegetable shortening;
- both cut into bits
1 c Heavy cream; plus 2 tbs
Cinnamon sugar

Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour,
spices to taste, cherries, lemon juice and peel, and butter. Toss
to mix; transfer to a buttered deep round baking dish.

Into a bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, soda and
salt. Add butter and shortening and blend with your fingertips or
pastry blender until it resembles coarse meal. Add 1 cup of the
cream, stirring until dough forms a ball. Be careful not to
overwork dough. On a lightly floured surface, turn out dough and
pat into a 1/2-inch thick round. Use a 2 to 2 1/2-inch biscuit
cutter to stamp out rounds. Gather scraps into a round and stamp
out more rounds.

Arrange rounds, lightly touching one another, on top of apple
filling so they form one continuous layer. Brush tops with
remaining 2 tablespoons heavy cream and sprinkle with cinnamon
sugar to taste. Bake cobbler in middle of oven 35 to 40 minutes,
or until filling is bubbling and dough is pale golden.
