This blackberry cobbler riff is made with a biscuit-like dough that gets rolled out, scattered with juicy blackberries, and then spiraled into a log—similar to forming cinnamon rolls. The log is cut into portions to reveal pinwheels of berries and dough that are nestled into a pie plate and get baked to golden, bubbling perfection.
