Ingredients:
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1-1/4 cups heavy (whipping) cream
- 1 tablespoon melted butter (optional)
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/3 cup blueberry or other fruit jelly
- 3/4 cup sweetened whipped cream or whipped topping
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a 9-inch square baking pan with nonfat cooking spray. In a medium-sized bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in cream to form a dough. Pat dough evenly on the bottom of the pan. Bake until the top is golden brown, about 18 minutes; if desired, brush the top with butter after 15 minutes. Cool shortcake slightly; cut in six rectangles. Cut each one diagonally in half. In a microwaveable bowl, combine berries and jelly; microwave on high until jelly melts, about 45 seconds. To serve: Place one triangle on each dessert plate. Top triangles with two-thirds of the berries and the whipped cream, dividing equally. Prop remaining triangles on top; add the remaining whipped cream and berries.
