I first made this when I was attending UGA one summer quarter. A friend's father had a peach orchard and the friend brought me a bushel of fresh peaches and this recipe. I made it for my boyfriend who, I found out later, hated peach cobbler... until he tasted my cobbler made with this recipe. The boyfriend is now my husband of ten years and this is still a frequently requested dessert.

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
2-quart microwave dish
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup whole milk
4 cups sliced peaches
Vanilla ice cream

Melt 1 stick of butter in a 2 quart microwave dish. In a separate dish, combine 1 cup of self-rising flour and 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of whole milk. Mix these 3 ingredients
thoroughly. Add to the melted butter.

Add 4 cups of sliced peaches (sweetened to taste) and DO NOT STIR.

Bake at 375 degrees F for 40 minutes or until browning is noted.

This is excellent served while warm. For extra flavor, top with vanilla ice cream. Serves 6.

NOTE: Canned or frozen peaches may be substituted for fresh. If plain flour is used, add 2 teaspoons of baking powder.
