Ingredients

Filling:

3 cups chopped strawberries

1/4 cup granulated sugar 

1 tablespoon cornstarch 

1 lime, zested and juiced

Crust and Crumble:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 1/2 sticks (20 tablespoons) salted butter, cubed and chilled, plus more for the pan

1 cup packed brown sugar 

1 tablespoon baking powder 

1/2 cup heavy cream 

2 tablespoons turbinado sugar 

Icing:

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice 

Directions

  1. For the filling: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Add the strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch and lime zest and juice to a bowl. Toss to combine and set aside.
  3. For the crust and crumble: In a food processor, combine the flour, butter, brown sugar and baking powder. Pulse until a loose crumb forms; continue to pulse as you add the cream.
  4. Grease a 9-by-13-inch pan with butter. Dump two-thirds of the flour mixture onto the prepared pan and press flat. Top with the strawberry mixture, spreading it into an even layer. Sprinkle over the remaining flour mixture, followed by the turbinado sugar.
  5. Bake the bars until the top is golden and the strawberry layer is thick and bubbling, 28 to 30 minutes. Remove and allow to cool.
  6. For the icing: Whisk together the powdered sugar and lime juice until smooth.
  7. Cut the cobbler into small squares and drizzle with the icing. Add to a platter and serve.

I did not like this recipe. I used a cherry filling which turned out great. It's the crust and topping I didn't like and I made it according to the directions. It was very cakey and bitter. I thought the amount of baking powder in the recipe seemed high but I followed the directions anyway. Only one person liked this dessert out of the five people who ate it.
