I love love love that you respect Cole’s privacy 💚 Not only is that being a good person and parent, it teaches him so much about respect and boundaries.
Amen, to this is not my forever home. We are just passin' through on our way to our eternal home!! Kudos to you for respecting Cole's privacy. Yes, indeed, to "deer dates" on country roads! Love being home with my husband as well and Steel Magnolias! Great, Batter Chatter! You are a bright ray of sunshine to your RU-vid followers! ❤
I never knew Steven was in the Air Force. Thank you for your service Steven!! Also, thanks for doing Jessica's cobbler recipe with blueberries. My dad is a HUGE blueberry fan and Father's Day is Sunday & I was thinking of making this for him...you convinced me to do it! Love you Mandy!
My hubby and I are homebodies too. Both my boys are on their own now (although, my University student is home for the summer). But we love cuddling down in the evenings in front of Netflix or hulu. Excitement for us is an evening dessert. Really love relaxing at home.
Another easy dessert is a Gooey Butter cake which are really more like bars. The original is made with a yellow cake mix but we like it made with yellow cake, chocolate cake, strawberry cake and lemon cake. For the chocolate I prefer just a plain chocolate cake. Not devil's food. To me that is bitter. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees CRUST 1 stick melted butter 1 box any flavor cake mix. Yellow is traditional 1 egg Mix this together and pat into the bottom of a glass 9x13 dish. It bakes better than a metal cake pan FILLING 1 stick melted butter 8 oz softened cream cheese 2 eggs 4 cups powdered sugar Cream together the cream cheese, butter and eggs, gradually mix in the powdered sugar. Pour over the crust. Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes. The crust should be browned around the edges and the filling should still be gooey. It is very rich. We cut ours into 16 bars. You can sprinkle with extra powdered sugar if you want them to look pretty but they have plenty of sugar in them without doing that.
Love, love, love the batter chatter videos…Koodos to you Mandy for supporting your sons privacy. If your “date” night is “deer” night, then we have “deer” night from Nov-April. We live in Canada, so of course with our weather it makes it hard for our deer to find food, so we feed them. Wish I could send you pictures of them. We have between 5-10 at a time. Then in the spring when they have their fawns, its like they bring them out in our backyard to show us. We live on land that was my great grandfathers and we’re about 30 minutes away from the city, so to us we have a little piece of heaven here on earth. Thank God everyday for what we have!!! And having you and your RU-vid channel in my life is a blessing. Enjoy watching your family and the best part…”bloopers”. Keep them coming and God bless you and your family!!!
The reason Cole seems like such a great, loving & respectful young man is obvious by the way you spoke of him today. His privacy, his request...that's honor. This is a favorite video of ours now.
My mother-in-law told me how to make this "Quick Cobbler" years ago, and I've made it ever since! When using canned peaches, I add some of the juice, and always add 1/4 tsp almond flavoring which brings out the flavor of the peaches so well! It's YUMMY! (I always add about 1 tsp vanilla flavoring as well to all the cobbers I make, no matter what fruit I'm using. )
Love the batter chatter. Steven is a goober, so funny. In the deep South (Texas) cobbler has more juice in it. We make mostly apple, peach or apricot because they all grow so well here in Texas.
Hi Mandy Married in 1958 and a friend gave this recipe to me then. It’s was titled 123 cobbler. Have been making this ever since. You can also make it with canned or frozen fruit. 2 cups 1 is not enough fruit.
Last night I was watching some old videos, and I was like “I wonder if she’ll do a Q&A anytime soon...” since I had some questions. Then this video came out, and I was disappointed I didn’t ask my questions-but you actually managed to answer all of them 😂 sometimes, life just works out! ❤️❤️ sending love to you and your family ❤️❤️
I love how you respect Cole. He's 16 and I'm sure he doesn't know everything he wants out of life yet and that's normal. I also love the fact you and your family put God first and I am so thankful this earth is not our forever home especially in the last 12 years and counting
I have made the cobbler for years. Sooo easy and good. I usually make it with canned peaches. If you use fresh peaches they have to be cooked down. I usually put a little sprinkle of white sugar on top before baking. Gives it a little sparkle. Enjoyed the Batter Chatter. See ya next time! ❤️
I enjoy your Batter Chatter videos. You didn’t answer my question but your actions did. I asked if you are still using Mary Kay & obviously you are as as demonstrated applying it. I loved your deer dates story because my husband & I do similar except we go very early morning since we have better luck seeing deer. The cobbler looks delicious.
Great questions, awesome answers and OUTSTANDING bloopers. Personally, I wish that every single movie made should include a blooper reel at the end, nuff said lol. God bless you, Shirley
I make the same cobbler but I use more fruit. I use about 3 cups. I put 1/2 in the dish. Then do the batter. I then add the rest of the fruit on top. I also sprinkle about a Tbsp of sugar on top. It gives it a little bit of a sweet crunch on top. I make all different flavors but our favorite is mixed berry. I use frozen fruit most of the time. That way I can make it anytime since I keep fruit in the freezer for cobblers all the time. If you use canned fruit make sure to drain it. It's too soupy otherwise. Another flavor we like is to mix cherries and peaches. That's delicious too.
Our grand children are now 13, 15, 16 and 19. When they were much younger, they would come to visit us here in southern Illinois, their favorite thing to do was to go count deer at dusk. in the beginning, we might hit 100 and then at one point we had 300 and last month when our 13 year old grandson was down here visiting we saw 534 deer in a 6 mile radius north east of our house. It’s the best fun when the right side & left side of the truck are competing or it’s girls against boys ❤️
I joined your channel a few months ago; not necessarily to try new recipes but because I love watching cooking videos. I must say I absolutely love watching your videos right from the cooking to the family taste testing to the bloopers and now I'm a fan of your Q & A videos as well. The blooper portion is one of my favs; you and Steven are so dang cute together! Thank you for the great videos; I look forward to watching more and who knows maybe I'll even try a recipe or two! Blessings, Tracey
We do deer dates too! We love driving around the block (a country block) and counting the number of deer we see. I live in WV in the middle of nowhere so there is a lot of wildlife around.
I commend you for protecting Cole's privacy, you are right, it is his decision, I am as curious as everyone else cause he is such a cutie & seems like a great kid . Maybe he will start his own channel eventually. I love Jessica, thexBunks are adorable. I had never heard the butter hack either, so smart. Can't wait to make the cobbler.
I literally 😂 “Have you seen me” 😂 My husband and I laugh like that as well. I watch the Bunkeys as well and I made the blueberry cobbler and it was delicious.
I really enjoyed Batter Chatter. I think the secret to your success is simple. Two very likable, happy people who seem to enjoy life and each other. You could probably do something about garbage and people would enjoy it. So just keep on laughing and enjoy yourselves. Big piece of çheese for Gracie Lou!
The cobbler recipe originated way back in the early 70s (I think). Pillsbury had bake off contests for several years. It was at that time called Crazy Crust Cobbler. I made it when I was still living at home and continued after I married and moved away. I mostly made it with peaches. Back then Georgia was famous for their peaches, now yall do in SC. Tell Cole we still love him and wish him the best with his future plans. :)
Awwwww, the deer date💜 awesome, my late mom's favorite thing to do🤗 oh yea, every road she knew😂 so many memories, we'd go get ice cream, she'd talk to them an swear that they all knew her car👍💝 peaceful thing to do...tfs👍💜
I binged watch several of your videos this weekend and wanted to tell your husband I agree about the cream cheese .. I love cream cheese but just not cooked in food food .. more for sweets ! I get it too LOL!
Mandy, I made your and Jessica’s cobbler recipe. I made mine with fresh peaches. It was wonderful. I didn’t have self rising flour, so I used all purpose and added a little salt and baking soda. I also added a little corn starch to them and a little cinnamon. OMG. It was wonderful. I did have to cook it at 350 degrees for almost 40 minutes. We didn’t have any ice cream, but we really didn’t need any . It was soon that me and my husband ate half of it. It was for the guys after they got finished baling hay. I think I’ll have to make another one for the guys. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.💕🤣
I like how you add your family, Miss Gracie Lou included but let them add what they want to your channel. Like when Cole dont feel like being on camera. I think I ran accrossed you in my recommendations because I was watching similar. Bloopers 🤣🤣🤣 Ribs are still my most favorite recipe I've tried from your channel ❤❤❤
Loved your batter chatter. I made Jessica's Cobbler too! So good (and tastes great made with Splenda if you can't do sugar!). I used blueberries and strawberries. So easy to make. I enjoy seeing Gracie Lou. She reminds me of my 1st kitty, Miki. I've had many more kitties since her ... and one of them (Madison) loved cheese the way Gracie does.
This was time well spent, enjoyed getting to know you. I watched while I was doing house chores, and before I knew it I was done. So enjoyed this!! Thank you for sharing your RU-vid journey.
Oh my WORD!! I found this video on Pinterest for blueberry cobbler. I've been a subscriber for quite some time now and the bloopers at the end made my day! Love y'all so much (ken ya tell ah'm frum the South too? Just over the mount'n in Knoxvull.) Y'all are the BEST!!
Kudos to you for respecting Cole's privacy! Love love love Gracie Lou! Lost my 14 year old girl Chaos in March. Great video! Will definitely be making this dessert very soon. The ingredients have already been added to my grocery list. Blessings from Birmingham 🌺
I loved seeing this one. I used to co-own a restaurant in a little town called Troutville. We used this exact recipe for our cobblers. You can also make it with pie filling. Just dollop it all throughout the batter. (That filling may increase baking time...) Like you, we doubled the fruit and served with vanilla ice cream. If I can find my chocolate pie recipe we used to use I'll send it to you. Love your channel so much.
I have followed Kimmy (She's in her Apron) for years and when you mentioned meeting her, I remembered that video! I had to go to her channel and find it. I rewatched it and there you are!! So stinking cool! Lol! Now you're one of my favorites as well!! Love how RU-vidrs inspire other people to try this out for themselves. You have a wonderful channel, and I am so happy that Kimmy encouraged you to just get started 💕 ☺️ Loved this video by the way! You seem such a genuinely wonderful person 😊
Ive recently became a subscriber and just came across the batter chatter totally awesome. I think it would be really awesome live. Love the BLOOPERS!!! Laughter is always good for life thanks again.
Love you didn’t answer questions about Cole. ❤️❤️ I’ve unsubscribed to so many of the family channels and “smoke & mirror” channels. Your channel is so genuine!
I have made that cobbler with every fruit possible! It’s always so good! I so enjoy watching you and I have hootenanny a lot of ideas from you ! Thanks! Always watching!
Thank you so much for all of your wonderful videos- I found your channel during 'quarantine' early in 2020. You have been and continue to be such a blessing! I laugh and I learn so much from your channel 🌻 I am also a big fan of Miss Gracie Lou 🧀😾💕
I made is for a church potluck the other night. It was a BIG hit, there was I very small peice left. I will be making this again for sure. Thank you for Shari g it with all of us 😀💜
Oh my goodness!! My husband and I go on deer dates too! But we take our 8 year old grandson! He loves looking through the binoculars looking for a buck. Living in southwestern pa we have lots of deer. Right now there are lots of babies. We usually see at least 50-100.
I just recently stumbled across one of your videos decided to watch and instantly subscribed, so now in no particular order I'm watching your videos. So to that on this episode we do almost the same recipe, but where I'm from we call it dump cake, you should try this sometime... 1 cup flour (any type you have) 1cup milk (any but not skim) 1 cup sugar (I prefer about 3/4 of a cup) 1 can any flavor of pie filling Mix the first three together and it doesn't have to be mixed perfectly smooth, pour into a well greased like 8X8 or 9X9 square pan, then dollop your canned pie filling around in the cobbler mixture. Bake 350 for 25 minutes or so
