These cherry cobbler bars are simple and sweet with cherry pie filling and the great, unique taste of Musselman's Apple Butter.
First thing is first: Can someone tell me what makes cobbler a cobbler? How do you distinguish it from a crisp or crumble? After a quick Google search, I found that there are actually various opinions out there on what defines a cobbler.
Some say cobbler only has one crust. Others say cobblers are baked with biscuits on top, creating a cobblestone street appearance. Another says a cobbler is baked in a deep dish.
