I didn't make the sauce and it was incredible just like it was. We dug in before I thought to take a photo. I did have a little more than 2 1/4 cups of blackberries in the bag and decided just to throw the rest on there. Also, I did have to add a little more milk because my dough was too dry and crumbly and I did bake an extra 5 minutes for a total of 40 minutes instead of 35.
