***SHORTCAKES***
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup cake flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar, plus 1 tablespoon

1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup reduced-fat cream cheese
3/4 cup buttermilk, plus 2 tablespoons
1 tbsp canola oil
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions:

TO MAKE BERRY FILLING:

In a bowl, combine raspberries, blackberries, sugar and framboise (or
kirsch). Let stand at room temperature, stirring occasionally, for 30
minutes to 1 hour.

TO MAKE & ASSEMBLE SHORTCAKES:

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat it with
nonstick spray.

2. In a mixing bowl, whisk all-purpose and cake flours, 1/4 cup sugar,
baking powder, baking soda and salt, Using a pastry blender or your
fingers, cut cream cheese into dry ingredients until mixture resembles
coarse meal.

3. In a glass measuring cup, combine 3/4 cup buttermilk, oil and vanilla.
Make a well in the dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and stir with a
fork until just combined. (Dough will be slightly sticky; do not overmix,)

4. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat into a
3/4-inch-thick circle. With a floured 3- or 3 1/2-inch cutter, cut out
shortcakes and place on prepared baking sheet. Press dough scraps together
and repeat to make 8 shortcakes.

5. Brush shortcake tops with remaining 2 tablespoons buttermilk and
sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.

6, Bake shortcakes for 10 to 12 minutes, or until light golden. Transfer to
a wire rack to cool slightly.

7. To serve, split shortcakes in half with a serrated knife. Set bottoms on
dessert plates. Spoon on berry filling and vanilla sauce. Set tops on at
an angle. Serve immediately.
