Can you use frozen blackberries? I have some in my freezer but not sure if they’ll be good.
I followed this step by step but my berries got all mushy. What gives?
Sounds like you might have overmixed the berries! They can get mushy if they’re too squished. Maybe try stirring gently next time.
Mushy berries?? I thought they were supposed to get all juicy and delicious! Did you use fresh or frozen?
Super easy to make! I added some nuts on top for extra crunch. Highly recommend!
I tried it too! But I didn’t like the nuts, made it too crunchy. Kinda defeats the soft fruit part, ya know?
5 stars!!! Love it! My grandma used to make something like this but with blueberries. Anyway, delicious!
It was too sweet for my taste. I think you should reduce the sugar amounts.
I had to add some cinnamon to spice it up a bit. Made a difference!
Didn’t work for me, the topping was mushy. Should it really be 1/2 cup butter? That seems too much.
I had the same issue! Maybe cut down on the butter next time or use less oats? Just a thought.
why cocoa?? struck me as odd. but it turned out alright I guess.
I was surprised by the cocoa too! But wow, it really balances the sweetness of the blackberries. Loved it! 👍
Cocoa? Really? Seems weird to me. But I guess it worked out for you? Not sure I’d try it tho.
This took forever to bake. Was it supposed to bubble that much? 😂
Lol! I mean who doesn’t love a little extra bubbling? Just more yummy sauce if you ask me! 😂
I think it may have bubbled a bit too much! Did you use frozen blackberries? They tend to release more juice.
I wasn’t sure about blackberries and chocolate together, but WOW I was surprised! It works really well. Definitely making this again!
Eh, it was alright. No big deal. The idea of blackberries and chocolate is weird.
Yum. chocolatey goodness.
I followed the recipe, but it came out too sweet for my taste. I guess I’m just not a dessert person.
Best recipe ever, I served it to my friends and they all raved about it!
I’m so glad to hear it turned out well! This recipe is truly a winner. 🍫
This is an incredible dessert! The mix of chocolate and blackberries is just divine. Five stars all the way!
Not sure about the mix of cocoa with berries. Seems strange to me. But hey, some people love it!
I totally get what you mean! Cocoa and berries is an unusual combo, but it actually works! You should give it a try. 🍫🍇
My kids didn’t like it. They said it tasted too weird… maybe I’ll just stick to strawberry shortcake next time.
Kids can be picky… but I think it sounds really good! They might just be used to the same old stuff.
Maybe they just prefer simpler flavors? I love this recipe though, it’s so delish!
This was pretty alright, but I found it a bit dry… could try adding more butter next time? 🤷♀️
I think you could definitely add more butter! I love my desserts richer. Never hurts to experiment!
Meh, I’m not a fan of blackberries. It was okay, but I’ll stick with apple pie.
This recipe made my whole house smell amazing! Will definitely make it again!
not the best, I’ve seen better recipes. sorry
I thought the sugar was too much. Can’t they do less sugar in recipes? My mom does. One star.
OMG this is my new favorite dessert! So quick and easy, highly recommend!
just ok. I don’t think I’ll make this again. too much effort for the taste.
Easy to make but I burnt the top a little… ugh. Still tasted okay. Maybe I’ll try again.
This was sooooo good! The chocolate and blackberries were a perfect match. Will definitely make again!
Absolutely delicious! The chocolate and berries are a perfect match. Loved it!
It was ok… not really my favorite. Gonna try it with ice cream next time maybe. 🍦
Yummy! But I used raspberries instead because blackberries were out at the store. Still turned out good!
