Tips & Techniques

  • Special Touch

    Sweeten your stars by sprinkling them with a bit of coarse white decorating sugar or granulated sugar before baking.

  • Simplify

    You can also make the shortcake dough in a food processor. Follow step 1 directions using a food processor fitted with a plastic blade and pulse just until ingredients are thoroughly combined. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and roll out as directed.

Ingredients

  • 4  cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
  • 1/4  cup sugar
  • 2  tablespoons baking powder
  • 2  teaspoons salt
  • 2/3  cup shortening
  • 1 1/2  cups milk
  • 2  packages (4-serving size each) vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix
  • 4  cups milk
  • 4  cups raspberries
  • 1  cup blueberries

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 450ºF. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in 1 1/2 cups milk just until blended.
  2. 2Place dough on lightly floured surface. Gently smooth into a ball. Knead 20 to 25 times. Roll dough 1/2 inch thick. Cut into 10 stars with floured 3-inch star-shaped cutter. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
  3. 3Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Make pudding mix as directed on package for pudding, using 4 cups milk. Split warm shortcakes. Fill and top shortcakes with pudding, raspberries and blueberries.
