Peach Cobbler

This is my very first cobbler. One of my best friends has a peach tree in her back yard and apparently it is producing a ton of peaches this year. Needless to say she had more peaches than she could handle, so she passed several on to me along with this Peach Cobbler recipe from Paula Deen. I was surprised just how easy making a cobbler is and the ingredients are so simple. I was wonderful served warm with some vanilla ice cream!
