I love this version of shortcakes. Really does not lack in flavor and they are very moist for a shortcake. I topped mine with a mix of fresh strawberries and blueberries and skipped on the whipped topping. I also tweaked the shortcake just a bit by adding a 1/2 tsp of cinnamon to the dough - it really brings out the flavor of the fruit when eaten together. Thanks for sharing!

I have to say I am shocked. I am not a fan of Bisquick, and usually no one in the family cares for things made with it (pancakes, dumplings etc...) I happened to have a small box in the pantry however; because my MIL bought it the last time she came for a visit and I just hadn't thrown it out yet. Well, I will be keeping it now so that I can make shortcakes all summer :o) Thanks dogsandwoods for sharing your recipe. Made and reviewed for Spring PAC 2009.
