This Simple Fresh Peach Cobbler (or any cobbler really) is always better when you have some vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt served right alongside it. Whipped cream tastes pretty darn good too!
Also, make sure that the cobbler is still nice and warm so that your ice cream starts to melt. The melted cream blends in with all those delicious peaches and the light cake topping. So good!
Good-bye fresh peach season. We will see you again next year.
