Strawberry biscuits



Strawberry biscuits:

3 cups of biscuit mix

1 cup of milk

1/4 cup of sugar

extra biscuit mix for kneading and rolling

--

1 cup of powdered sugar

2 tbsp of milk

strawberry jam

Mix the biscuit mix with the sugar and pour in the milk and add slowly until the mixture is sticky and sort of dry. Dust a clean flat surface with extra biscuit mix and spoon out the ball of dough onto it. Sprinkle more biscuit mix on it and knead it. Keep adding more if you need it based on if its too sticky. Roll it out to 1/2 thick and cut it with something - either a cup, a lid of some sort, or a cookie or biscuit cutter. Spread them out leaving 1.5-2 inches between them and press down with your thumb in the center, leaving a dip to later fill with jam. Bake 12-15 minutes at 400 or until golden brown. (you may have to pull them out half-way and re-press the centers down). Take them out and fill the holes with strawberry jam.. Make a glaze using the powdered sugar and milk and drizzle over the strawberry filled biscuits. Enjoy!
