Blackberry Shortcake

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Grease a tin with melted butter.

  3. Layer the shortcake batter in the tin, adding as many layers as desired.

  4. Bake until golden and easily split apart.

  5. Once baked, place the sweetened and creamed blackberries between the layers.

  6. Serve immediately.
