Amazing! I followed others' suggestions and put juice of half a lemon to the blueberry mix, and a bit of vanilla extract to the dough. I think this is the best blueberry dessert I ever had.
Blueberry Cobbler
While variations abound, a traditional cobbler is a baked, deep-dish fruit dessert that's topped with a biscuit sprinkled with sugar to give it a bit of crunch and color. This blueberry cobbler is a similar version that uses a light, dumpling-like topping instead of a dense biscuit.
