Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil.
Stir together cornstarch and cold water in a large bowl until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Add 1 to 1 1/4 cups sugar, depending on sweetness of berries, the lemon juice and berries, and combine gently but thoroughly. Transfer berry mixture to a well-seasoned 10-inch cast-iron skillet and set aside.
Combine flour, baking powder, salt and remaining 3/4 cup sugar in a food processor and pulse to blend. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Transfer to a medium bowl. (Alternatively, mix biscuit ingredients in a medium bowl with a pastry fork.) Add boiling water and stir just until a dough forms.
Bring blackberry mixture to boil on top of stove, stirring. Carefully drop 8 large spoonfuls of dough onto fruit.
Set skillet on foil-lined baking sheet and bake until topping is golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool slightly on a rack and serve warm, with vanilla ice cream.
