Tips & Techniques

  • Do-Ahead Tip

    Get a jump start on making shortcake! Before baking, cover and refrigerate the cut dough on the cookie sheet for up to 4 hours, or wrap and freeze for up to 48 hours.

  • Substitution

    Try fresh raspberries instead of strawberries, or ditch the red, white and blue theme and use blackberries, sliced peaches or even sliced plums!

  • Success

    Shortcakes contain a lot of sugar, so having a dark bottom crust is normal. Be sure to place the cookie sheet in the center of the oven to ensure even browning.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2  quarts strawberries, sliced (6 cups)
  • 1 1/2  cups granulated sugar
  • 4 2/3  cups Original Bisquick® mix
  • 1  cup milk
  • 1/2  cup chopped dried cherries
  • 6  tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 6  tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
  • 2  cups blueberries
  • 3/4  cup whipping (heavy) cream
  • 2  tablespoons granulated or powdered sugar

Directions

  1. 1Mix strawberries and 1 1/2 cups sugar. Let stand 1 hour.
  2. 2Heat oven to 425ºF. Mix Bisquick mix, milk, cherries, 6 tablespoons sugar and the butter until soft dough forms.
  3. 3Gently smooth dough into ball on surface sprinkled lightly with Bisquick mix. Knead 10 times. Roll dough 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured 3-inch star-shaped or round cutter. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. 4Stir blueberries into strawberries. Beat whipping cream and 2 tablespoons sugar in chilled medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Split shortcakes in half. Fill and top with berries and whipped cream.
