Director Lost Peach Cobbler Recipe from 10 Years Ago - Can You Help?

[cheftiffany]

I had a guest last night who said she went to a show like 10 years ago and there was a peach cobbler recipe that she had but has lost. It included a can of peaches, white cake mix (maybe jiffy box) and possibly something that resembled a crumble on top. Does anyone know what she's talking about and where I can find it?
Thanks for your help

Here you go!! Not sure if this is it or not b/c I don't see cake mix but.......

Peach Skillet Cobbler
(Delightful Desserts...pg 36)

Fruit Filling
1/3 cup sugar
2 Tbls cornstarch
1 Tsp peeled and finely chopped fresh ginger root
8 cups sliced, peeled fresh peaches (about 8 large or 3 3/4 lbs)

Cobbler Topping
1 cup flour
1/3 cup plus 2 tsp sugar, divided
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbls butter or margarine
1/4 cup cold water
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup natural sliced almonds
Ice cream or thawed, frozen whipped topping (optional)
Fresh mint leaves (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 375F. For fruit filling, mix sugar, cornstarch and ginger in Small Batter Bowl; set aside. Slice peaches into 1/2 inch slices using Paring Knife.

2. Toss peaches with cornstarch mixture in large Colander Bowl until evenly coated. Spoon into Large (10 inch) Skillet; cover with lid. Heat peach mixture over medium heat until mixture begins to bubble.

3. Meanwhile, for cobbler topping, combine flour, 1/3 cup of the sugar, baking powder and salt in Classic Batter Bowl. Using Pastry Blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add water; stir just until dough clings together.

4. Remove cover from skillet. Using Large Scoop, drop 6 scant scoops of dough, 2 inches apart, over hot filling. (Filling must be very hot so that biscuit dough will bake through. Biscuits will spread during baking). Combine remaining 2 teaspoons sugar and cinnamon in Flour/Sugar Shaker. Sprinkle dough with almonds and sugar-cinnamon mixture.

5. Bake, uncovered, 35-40 minutes or until topping is golden brown. Using Oven Mitts, carefully remove skillet to Nonstick Cooling Rack. Cool at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped topping and garnish with mint leaves, if desired.

Makes 6 servings.
