My Mom made the dumplings with flour and water and the yummy fresh blackberries we had just picked afer fighting with the snakes in the briar patch. This recipes gives the old way to make them and a new way to fix them. Mom never had leftovers on this recipe.

| Ingredients |
| 1 gallon blackberries cleaned, washed and well drained |
2 1/2 cup granulated sugar |
| just enough water to cover the berries |
Dough which can be made while the berries cook |
| 1 box yellow cake mix |
2 beaten eggs |
| 1/2 tsp baking powder |
2 cups water |
| 21/2 cup flour |
| |
| | | Directions | Berries: place berries, sugar, and water in a large pot. Bring to a boil and cook on medium heat for approximately 20-30 minutes. While the berries are cooking, blend the cake mix, the eggs, the baking powder and the water with an electric mixer. Add flour gradually and mix until the dough is stiff. Knead by hand.

Drop the dough by teaspoonfuls into the berries that are cooking on simmer. Make sure that the dumplings are far enough apart to allow them to rise. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Turn the dumplings over on the other side, cover and cook 5 more minutes. Remove from berries. To serve put dumpling in a small bowl, add berries and top with vanilla ice cream. Ummmmmmmm Good! You can cook as much as you need and then put the rest of the dough in the ice box for use at a later time. Can keep up to a week. Other fruit can be used such as strawberries, peaches or pears, fresh, frozen or canned.
