I keep hearing how wonderful this is and we have ADRs for Artist Point during our Feb. trip.
Anyone know what exactly is in it? Allergic to strawberries but as long as I can pick them out (with a fork) I'm fine. Also allergic to coconut and nutmeg (yes, really, nutmeg and it's pretty bad) so any other good suggestions would be appreciated.

Happy New Year!
 
It has been a couple of years since we ate at AP, but as I recall the Artist Point Cobbler was covered with lots of fresh strawberrys, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries as well as vanilla ice cream. It was very delicious. It will be your call on the allergy issue.

Good luck :banana:
 
To call this dessert a cobbler is not really accurate. When people think of cobbler, they think of a sweet fresh fruit filling within a pastry shell and top. This is more like a dense cake. It is large and the fruit is baked into the dessert as well as on top. You can not pick out the fruit because the items you are allergic to have "infected" the dough immediatly surrounding it making this impossible to eat.

Honestly, I don't think it is that good so I don't think you are missing out. There are many other desserts that they serve that I think are better.

Cheers!
 
One more thing - I would recommend any of the other items. I like them all. Chai Tea Cheesecake, chocolate whiskey cake with raspberry sorbet or vanilla latte creme brulee. We will be dining there Feb 6th.
 

I just had it on Thursday night! The "cake" was really dense like someone else said and it had blueberries baked in it. It was topped with fresh blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries. On top was raspberry icecream. I thought it was good and a nice change from the usual cheesecake or chocolate desserts I normally order.
 
Here's the recipe in case anyone wants to make it at home!

Artist Point Berry Cobbler
from Artist Point Restaurant, Wilderness Lodge

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tbsp. salt
2 1/2 tbsp. baking powder
1 1/8 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups blueberries or other seasonal berries
8 tbsp. brown sugar
8 tbsp. unsalted butter
Whipped cream or ice cream

Combine the flour, salt, baking powder and sugar. Break the butter apart into small pieces and mix it in. Add the eggs and stir until just absorbed. Add the heavy cream and mix just enough to incorporate (batter should be lumpy). Divide the dough into four pieces. In four 6-inch cake pans lined with parchment paper, place the pieces of dough, spread evenly along bottom of the pans. Spread the blueberries on top of each piece. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Dot each with 1 tablespoon butter. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 15 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and dry and the cobblers are lightly browned. Cool to room temperature, add fresh berries (if desired) and serve with a dollop of chilled whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
