List of Ingredients




Biscuits
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp each sugar and baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) cold butter, cut small
1/3 cup dried sweetened cranberries, chopped
3/4 cup milk

Strawberry Butter
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) butter, softened
1 Tbsp each strawberry spreadable fruit and honey



Recipe



1. Heat oven to 425°F. Have ready a 3-in. flower-shaped, scalloped or round cookie cutter and a baking sheet.

2. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl until blended. Using a pastry blender, cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles cornmeal with some tiny pieces of butter remaining. Stir in cranberries. Add milk and stir with a fork until dough clumps together. Gather into a ball.

3. Place on a floured work surface; knead lightly about 5 times. With a rolling pin, roll out to 1/2 in. thick. Using cutter, cut out biscuits; place on ungreased baking sheet. Gather scraps, reroll and cut more biscuits.

4. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned and tops are pale golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

5. Strawberry Butter: Mix ingredients until blended. Spoon into a serving dish.

6. Cut biscuits in half; serve with the butter.
