Blueberry Cobbler Bars

By srumbel

These are so incredibly simple to make. We all love the wonderful smell of baked blueberries drifting through the house. This recipe works well with both fresh or frozen – so take all those summer berries, pack them away & you can enjoy this all year long. This recipe also works well with other berries.
