My aunt insisted you need a full cup of sugar in her peach cobbler, but it's way too sweet.

I cut it to two-thirds of a cup last summer and my whole family said it was better. Anyone have a go-to fruit dessert that isn't a sugar bomb?

Sugar is cheap filler in a lot of old recipes. Your aunt probably just copied it from someone else who did the same thing. Not everything written down is worth keeping.

Look at my grandma's handwritten pie crust recipe. It calls for a whole cup of sugar and it's the flakiest crust you'll ever eat. Calling that a cheap filler is just wrong.
