CUPPA-CUPPA PEACH COBBLER

1 stick unsalted butter
2 to 4 c. peeled and sliced peaches, with juice
1 c. sugar
2 t. baking powder
1 c. all purpose flour
1 c. milk

Put butter in (2 quart) casserole dish. Place in cold oven and pre-heat to 350°. If peaches are not juicy, sprinkle with sugar and set aside. Sift remaining sugar, baking powder and flour into mixing bowl. Add milk and mix until well blended. When butter has melted and oven has reached 350°, pour batter evenly into the casserole dish. Add the peaches and their juice, distributing evenly, but keeping an outer edge of batter (about an inch). Return to the oven and bake for an hour or until top is golden brown.
(serves 4 to 8)
