Shortcake Biscuit

Make Standard Biscuit, using shortening to taste, and biscuits rather larger than ordinary. Split and butter biscuits while hot. Take any fresh fruit, crush it, and add enough sugar to make plenty of juice. Pour crushed fruit over and between biscuits, just before serving. Strawberries, raspberries, blue berries, peaches or any ripe or canned fruit can be used. In using canned fruits, drain from the syrup and cut into pieces. Dilute cream with some of the syrup instead of milk. Whipped cream, sweetened or flavored, can be added. This form of shortcake has become very popular, on account of its convenience.
