2 cups granulated sugar, divided
Cream 1 cup sugar with butter; add flour, baking powder, salt, and milk; mix well.
Pour into 12"x8"x2" baking pan. Pour blackberries over batter. Sprinkle remaining sugar over berries. Pour boiling water over top.
Bake at 350°F for 50 minutes or until golden brown. Serve plain or with cream.
Poster's Notes:
I have also made this over a campfire in a "Dutch oven," using a round cake pan on a rack and homemade vanilla-flavored sugar. The recipe is fairly forgiving.
