A sure sign that fall is truly here is when my family asks me to make my signature gingerbread cobbler. Over the years it's been given the nickname of "Autumn in the Oven". Clever, right? -Cheryl Peterman, Prescott, Arizona

The gingerbread topping on this cobbler was a bit too dry. I think I would have added more butter or milk to the batter.

The pears in this cobbler were not as tender as I would have liked. I think I would have cooked them for a little longer.

This cobbler was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar in the filling.
