Vinegar Cobbler

Although I do not remember this dessert ever being served in my home, I understand that it was a favorite of my mother and her siblings growing up in the Depression.   Thanks to my Uncle Reuben Cowan for preserving the recipe and passing it along.

     ½ cup butter or margarine
      1 cup sugar
