Apple Cobbler with Biscuit Topping

Ok. This apple cobbler with biscuit topping. This is my favorite biscuit recipe on top of a brown sugar, cinnamon fried apple filling. This is so decadent and fluffy. You have to top with vanilla ice cream while it's hot. You cannot beat this classic southern dessert.
