Strawberry Shortcakes

I made these Bisquick shortcakes today and they were about 3 out of 5 stars. I definitely overcooked them (see the photo, they look golden brown, but were way too crunchy.) There is another recipe if you have regular Bisquick (instead fo the Heart Smart mix). I just happened to have the healthy one on hand.

1 pint strawberries, sliced

1/4 cup sugar*

1 cup Bisquick Heart Smart mix

2 tbsp sugar

1/3 cup skim milk fat-free whipped topping

Mix strawberries and 1/4 c sugar. Set aside or refrigerate overnight. * I like to add amaretto to my strawberries. Add 2 tbsp. to the mixture (reduce sugar) and refrigerate overnight for a delightful addition.

Heat oven to 425°. Mix Bisquick, 2 tbsp sugar and milk until soft dough forms. Divide dough into fourths. Drop each fourth onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes until golden brown.

Split warm shortcakes. Fill and top with strawberries and whipped topping.
