my husband picked about a cup of berries for me...but I'm not sure what they are. Black raspberries or Blackberries...

Any one have any good recipes for either of these????

Our batteries for our camera are dead. Otherwise I'd post a picture.

Angie, can he pick you another cup?

I don't know how this one will turn out... but, I found this recipe while looking for a cherry recipe. You could try experimenting with any dough you may have on hand, i.e. prepared pie dough etc. The Almond dough does sound good though. Wrap the dough ball around the berry & bake.

I'm thinking that more berries are a must, or I'll have to "halve" the recipe....either way, I LOVE black berries and black raspberries and am ready to get started!

Actually, you only need about 12, the rest are on the side... but, I'm with you - the more berries, the better. It looked like a quick/flexible recipe, so thought I would run it by you. Crescent dough may work in a pinch. Let us know how it turns out. I definitely want to try this when I have cherries.

Around here, they would be black raspberries, too early for blackberries. But it is hard for me to judge, the drought has stopped all berry production for about a week now.

Just eat some after dinner tonight and finish them off with breakfast, unless you get some more. Just yell if you need reccipes!

oh crap...thats not the recipe I used...
i am so lost...

Tomorrow i can post the muffin recipe I use. It is very very good!

If you have roundish berries, they are raspberries. If they are elongish, they are blackberries. Taste and size are the main differences. At least in my experience. I am used to wild black raspberries which are smallish and the wild blackberries here are hugh.
