BISQUICK BLUEBERRY SHORTCAKE (LIGHTER)



Bisquick Blueberry Shortcake (Lighter) image

This is something that my 6 year old and I have just discovered as a terrific treat for after school. I never really grew up fully, because I too look forward to that after school snack. There are so many different directions that this recipe can be taken, but this is by far our favorite. My son is the kid who, if I make him smoothies or another healthy snack, he says, "You know what this needs, mommy? It needs chocolate!" but he doesn't say that with this. :D

THE ORIGINAL BISQUICK® STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKES



The Original Bisquick® Strawberry Shortcakes image

The original Old Fashioned Shortcake recipe appeared on the first Bisquick® box in 1931. It's said that an advertising slogan promised - "Here's the Kind of Strawberry Shortcake Your Husband Will Rave About." Shortcakes are the sweet cousin of the dinner bisquit, and these easy-to-prepare treats have stood the test of time in my family. It started with my mom who made her Bisquick® strawberry shortcakes with her garden grown strawberries and REAL homemade whipping cream. Some thirty years later my sistes and I are still baking up these sweet treats.

Time 22m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups strawberries, stems removed and sliced
2/3 cup white sugar
2 1/3 cups original Bisquick baking mix
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine, melted
1/2 cup whipping cream
vanilla
1 teaspoon white sugar

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, stir together strawberries and 1/2 cup sugar; set aside for about 1 hour.
  • Heat oven to 425°F
  • In another medium bowl, stir Bisquick® mix, milk, 3 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter until a soft dough forms.
  • Drop the dough by rounded tablespoonfuls into 6 mounds onto ungreased cookie sheet; dust with sugar.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, in a chilled small bowl whip the cream, adding a drop or two of vanilla and a teaspoon of sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
  • Serve one of two ways:.
  • 1. Split warm shortcakes; fill and top with strawberries and whipped cream, or
  • 2. Break up one biscuit per person into big pieces into a dessert bowl. Ladle strawberries over the biscuit; add a dolop of whipped cream.
  • COOK'S TIP: Alternatives to strawberries could include raspberries, blueberries & peaches, and my favorite, apricots & honey (Soak dried apricots in warm water for 1 hour; chop fine. Gently toss apricots with honey and let stand awhile to blend flavors. Serve over shortcakes.).

Tips:

  • For a sweeter shortcake, use 1 cup of sugar instead of 1/2 cup.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make the shortcake ahead of time, bake it and let it cool completely. Then, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  • When you're ready to serve the shortcake, top it with fresh blueberries, whipped cream, or ice cream.
  • For a fun twist, try using other berries, such as strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries.

Conclusion:

Bisquick blueberry shortcake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a classic summer treat that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
