                  Biscuits: _How to make them perfect_


    [Illustration: Heat oven to 450° (hot). Add ⅔ cup milk all at once
    to 2 cups Bisquick. Stir with fork into a soft dough. Beat dough
    vigorously 20 strokes, until stiff and slightly sticky.]

    [Illustration: Roll dough around on cloth-covered board lightly
    dusted with Bisquick to prevent sticking.]

    [Illustration: Knead gently 8 to 10 times to smooth up dough.]

    [Illustration: Roll ½″ thick. Biscuits double in size in baking. Dip
    cutter in Bisquick. Cut close together to save rerolling.

    Bake on ungreased shiny baking sheet _10 to 15 min._; close together
    for soft sides, 1″ apart for crusty sides. _Makes 12 2″ biscuits._]

_For Drop Biscuits_ ... drop dough with spoon on greased baking sheet.
      Bake as above.

_For Richer Biscuits_ ... follow directions above—except mix ¼ cup soft
      butter or shortening, or 3 tbsp. cooking (salad) oil into Bisquick
      before mixing in milk.

_For Buttermilk Biscuits_ ... use ¾ cup buttermilk for liquid. It may be
      necessary to use a few additional tablespoons of buttermilk to
      make a dough of soft consistency.

  ½ cup whipping cream, whipped

Blend in saucepan sugar, gelatin, raspberries. Bring to full rolling
boil, stirring constantly. Cool pan in cold water until mixture mounds
slightly when dropped from a spoon. Add cream of tartar to egg whites,
beat until frothy. Gradually beat in sugar and beat until meringue holds
stiff peaks. Fold berry mixture into meringue. Carefully fold in whipped
cream. Pile into cooled baked Short Pie shell (recipe below). Chill
several hours until set.


                            Short Pie Shell

    [Illustration: Short pie shell]

  1 cup Bisquick
  ¼ cup soft butter (½ stick)
  3 tbsp. boiling water

Heat oven to 450° (hot). Put Bisquick and butter in 9″ pie pan. Add
boiling water and stir vigorously with fork until dough forms a ball and
cleans the pan. Dough will be puffy and soft. With fingers and heel of
hand, pat dough evenly into pie pan, bringing up dough to edge of pan.
This may seem skimpy but will not be when baked. Flute edges. Bake _8 to
10 min._ Fill with ice cream or other fillings.


                             Fruit Cobbler

    [Illustration: Fruit cobbler]

Heat oven to 400° (mod. hot). Heat 2½ cups (no. 2 can) canned fruit or
berries and juice (or 3 cups fresh fruit and ¾ cup water). Sweeten to
taste. Blend in 1 tbsp. cornstarch dissolved in 2 tbsp. cold water.
Bring to a boil; boil 1 min. Pour into 2-qt. baking dish. Dot with
butter. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Drop ½ Fruit Shortcake Dough (recipe
page 18) by spoonfuls over top. Bake about _20 min._ Serve hot with
cream. _6 to 8 servings._


                            Short Pie Rounds

Prepare Short Pie dough (above)—except divide dough into 6 parts.
Flatten each part into 3 or 4″ rounds on baking sheet. Flute edges. Bake
_about 8 min._ Serve on top of your favorite cooked fruit filling. _6
servings._


                             Ranch Pudding

  1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  2½ cups water
  2 tbsp. butter
  1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  ½ cup milk
  1¼ cups Bisquick
  1 cup raisins or chopped dates
  ½ to 1 cup chopped nuts
  1 tsp. vanilla

Heat oven to 350° (mod.). Mix 1 cup brown sugar, water, and butter in
saucepan. Boil 5 min. Pour into 8″ square pan. Mix rest of ingredients
in bowl. Spoon batter on top of sugar mixture. It will sink into the
liquid and will spread out as it bakes. Bake _45 min._ Serve warm with
plain or whipped cream. _9 servings._


                        Hot Sea Food Appetizers

Heat oven to 450° (hot). Make Rolled Biscuit dough (recipe page 3). Roll
dough ¼″ thick. Cut into biscuits 1″ in diameter. Place on baking sheet.
Bake _6 to 8 min._ Immediately split each baked biscuit. Spread with sea
food mixture. Sprinkle with grated sharp cheese, if desired. Replace
tops. Return to oven to heat through. Serve piping hot. _Makes about 60
tiny_ biscuits.


                           Filling variations

_Shrimp Spread_: Mix ½ cup flaked cooked shrimp (5-oz. can), 1 tbsp.
chopped pimiento, 1 tbsp. lemon juice, 3 tbsp. mayonnaise, and salt and
pepper to taste.

_Crabmeat Spread_: Use crabmeat in place of shrimp in the above spread.


                             Pronto Puppies

    [Illustration: Pronto puppies]

  1 egg
  ½ cup milk
  1 cup Bisquick
  2 tbsp. yellow corn meal
  ¼ tsp. paprika
  ½ tsp. dry mustard
  ⅛ tsp. cayenne
  1 lb. miniature or large frankfurters

Heat deep fat to 375°. Blend egg, milk. Stir in dry ingredients. Dip
frankfurters in batter. Fry until brown, _2 to 3 min._ on each side.
Serve miniature franks on cocktail picks. Slice large franks. To reheat:
Place in 400° oven about 5 min.


                        Doughnuts or Fried Balls

    [Illustration: Doughnuts]

  2 cups Bisquick
  ¼ cup sugar
  ⅓ cup milk
  1 tsp. vanilla
  1 egg
  ¼ tsp. _each_ cinnamon and nutmeg, if desired

Heat fat to 375°. Mix ingredients until well blended. Turn onto lightly
floured surface and knead about 10 times. Roll out ⅜″ thick. Cut with
floured doughnut cutter. Fry in hot fat until golden brown, about 1 min.
to a side. Take from fat and drain on absorbent paper. _Makes about 12
doughnuts._


                                Fritters

    [Illustration: Fritters]

Mix 2 cups Bisquick, ⅔ cup milk, 1 egg until well blended (batter will
be lumpy). Stir in 2 cups fruit or cooked vegetables, drained. Drop by
small teaspoonfuls into deep hot fat (360 to 375°). Turn and fry until
golden brown on both sides. Drain on absorbent paper. Serve hot with
syrup or confectioners’ sugar. _Makes 2 dozen._


                       Fried Chicken, Meats, Fish

For the crispiest coating you ever tasted, roll fresh fish, sea food,
chicken, or meat generously in Bisquick. Fry in a small amount of fat
until golden brown on both sides. Turn only once. Use leftover dredgings
for making gravy.
