Shortcakes, Mixed Berry - Atkins Recipe




Ingredients:

1 cup atkins bake mix
1/2 cup pecan halves
3 tbsp granular sugar substitute
2 tsp granular sugar substitute
1 tsp salt
6 tbsp cold butter, small pieces
1 2/3 cup heavy cream, divided
1/4 cup sour cream
1 large egg
3 cup mixed fresh berries, such as strawberries

BLUEBERRIES, RASPBERRIES

Instructions:

Nothing says 'summer' like fresh berry shortcakes. You may prepare the
dough ahead of time, but for best results, bake just before serving.

1. In a food processor, pulse bake mix, pecans, 3 tbs of the sugar
substitute and salt until nuts are finely ground. (If you don’t have a food
processor, grind the nuts in a nut or coffee grinder.) Add the butter and
pulse until butter pieces are the size of peas.

2. In a liquid measuring cup or bowl, whisk 2/3 cup of the heavy cream,
sour cream and egg. Pour evenly over the dry mixture and pulse just until
combined. Transfer dough to a baking sheet.

3. Separate dough into 12 equal-sized pieces (you’ll need about 3 ½ tbs of
dough for each piece). Pat each piece into a disk measuring 2 ½” to 3”
across. Space disks evenly on baking sheet; chill in refrigerator 30
minutes. (Dough may be kept for 1 one day at this point.)

4. Heat oven to 375º F. Bake shortcakes about 17 minutes, until bottoms are
golden brown. Cool on baking sheet set on a wire rack.

5. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat remaining cup of heavy
cream with remaining 2 tsp sugar substitute until soft peaks form. To
assemble: Dollop 1/4 cup whipped cream on 6 six shortcakes, top with 1/2
cup berries and cover with remaining shortcakes.
