I called this Blueberry surprise, because I din't know if this would turn out to be a cobbler or more like a cake, to me it's a little of both. I had a can of Blueberry pie filling, I bought for a pie, We really wanted something sweet, I din't have any pie crusts and din't want to make crusts. So i just put everything togeather , the way I wanted it to taste, This turned out very good . We loved it.

Take out and let cool about 20 minutes. this looked thin, untill it set. This is the way we liked ours. it will be juicie, with just enough cakey crust. wonderful with a scoop of Vanilla or Lemon ice cream on top or whipped cream.
