High-end French ceramic bakeware manufacturer Emile Henry, known for more than a century for the even heat distribution of its cookware, has a recipe for a four-ingredient peach cobbler on their website - of which the only ingredient it has in common with the cuppa, cuppa recipe is the fruit. And it turns out that Americans in general, and Southerners in particular, are not the only ones looking for a shortcut in the kitchen. So even the simplest of recipes can have variations. In some families, the recipe doesn’t include butter. Sheryl Mohn says, “this receipt always makes me think of Steel Magnolias - Truvy serves it with vanilla ice cream to cut the sweetness.”Īnd you can too, if you agree with the fictional folks in Chinquapin Parish, Louisiana, that it is possible for a dessert to be too sweet, although, admittedly, that is not a commonly held belief locally. Which is not to say there are not variations on the theme. In fact, some of the sassier grandmas call this delicious confection neither a sonker nor a cobbler, but a “No Fool’s Pie” because the recipe is so simple any fool can do it. Technically, the whole thing falls apart right there because a stick of butter is actually a half cup, but who’s to argue with tradition? Some people call it ‘cuppa, cuppa, cuppa, sticka” for that reason, but that’s really not necessary, because surely you can remember it. Now repeat from memory what your mother taught you when you were five: a cuppa flour, a cuppa sugar, a cuppa milk, a sticka butter. You may be a fan of pie dough crusts, or biscuit crusts, or dumplings, or even puff pastry, but you have to admit, the quickest way to get there is the cuppa, cuppa, cuppa route.Ī recipe so simple the title is almost the recipe. This is not about what you call it, but how you make it. Cobbler debate which inevitably rears its ugly head whenever either of these delicious desserts presents itself hereabouts. The cobbler is delicious, even using a cheap knockoff baking dish rather than the $150 dish suggested by Emile Henry.
