Category: Cobblers/Crumbles and Crisps

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
1 package (6 oz.) Nestle semisweet chocolate morsels
1/4 cup milk
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 can (21 ounce)cherry pie filling
1/2 cup finely chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and butter. Cut with a pastry blender until the crumbs are the size of small peas. Over hot (not boiling) water, melt the chocolate morsels. Allow to cool 5 minutes at room temperature.

Add milk and egg to the chocolate mixture; mix well. Blend into flour mixture; mix well. Spread pie filling in the bottom of a 2 quart casserole.

Drop chocolate batter randomly over cherries. Sprinkle nuts all over top. Bake 40-45 minutes.

Serve with a big ol' scoop of vanila ice cream and you are gold.
