This cobbler is one of my own personal favorite recipes that my mom always made, when peaches were plentiful. When ever I make it, it always reminds me of being in Arkansas when I was growing up and the smell of cinnamon throught the house, and out the window. I made 2 of these this past Mother's Day, one for my household, and the other for my best friend of 45 years. She was overjoyed. This is Southern comfort dessert at it's best.

    Then place in oven and bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, until crust becomes lightly browned.. Remove from oven and add remaining peaches. Roll out remaining crust and cut into strips. Place over peaches in a lattice design. Mix remaining 1 and half teaspoon of sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle over top of crust. Return to oven and bake an additional 20 minutes, or until golden brown. NOTE: If you like a lot of crust in your cobbler, then use an additional pie crust. ENJOY YOUR DESSERT, IT WAS ALL WORTH IT.
