BOURBON PEACH COBBLER

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large bowl add the peaches, bourbon, 1/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon and mix well to coat the peaches evenly; set aside.
• Prepare the dumplings:
• Into a bowl sift together the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) butter into small pieces.
• Add it to the flour mixture and cut it in with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture looks like coarse bread crumbs.
• Pour in the cream and mix just until the dough comes together.
• Don't overwork; the dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
• In a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium-low heat, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter.
• Add the peaches and cook gently until heated through, about 5 minutes.
• Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls over the warm peaches.
• There can be gaps, the dough will puff up and spread out as it bakes.
• Brush the top with some heavy cream and sprinkle with some sugar; put it into the oven on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
• Cook for 40 to 45 minutes until the top is browned and the fruit is bubbling.
