Easy Schmeasy Berry Cobbler


1 Pound Frozen Fruit
1 Yellow Cake Mix
12 oz Lemon/Lime Soda (7-Up, Sprite, etc.)
 
Pre-Heat oven to 375°
 
Put frozen berries in 9 x 11 pan;
Sprinkle dry cake mix over the top;
Pour soda over the mix;
Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes.  Remove foil and bake an additional 20 minutes.
Serve with ice cream or whipped topping.
 
~Source: this one is hard to pinpoint the origin.  It’s been all around the internet (Pinterest, Weight Watchers, Sparkpeople, etc.)
 
Patti’s Notes: I sprayed the pan with Pam and used a 16 oz package of mixed berries (blackberries, raspberries and blueberries) and added some extra berries that I had in the freezer (probably another cup or so).  I baked it an extra 10 minutes because I thought it was too loosy goosey.  I actually thought it was still too loose and that next time I should add some cornstarch over the berries to help thicken it, but low and behold, after it sat out for about an hour while we were eating dinner it set up and was just perfect. No cornstarch needed. We topped it with vanilla ice cream. The boys loved it.  I think everyone had seconds. There wasn't an ounce of leftovers. This one is a keeper. I think this would also be great made with frozen peaches.  Peach Cobbler ala mode.  Yum. 
 
Health-O-Meter: You can use regular cake mix and regular soda or you can lighten it up and use reduced calorie cake mix and diet soda. Top with Cool Whip Lite instead of ice cream.
 
Easy Meter: It doesn’t get any easier than this. 
  ^That's just frost on the berries, I didn't add sugar.
Covered with cake mix and bathed in 7-Up.
