I took the suggestions made by others -- less sugar and more peaches -- and it was superb. It got rave reviews. Some even said it was best peach cobbler they had ever had.01/24/10

This is my new favorite peach cobbler recipe. I do cut down on the butter a bit and it bakes faster than recommended. Yum! My son (7) loves to make this.09/15/09
