June Challenge Recipe: Fresh Blueberry Shortcake

If you’ve never made shortcakes, now is the time to start! Basically a sweet biscuit, my shortcakes are buttery and flaky and easier to make than you may imagine. Just follow my step-by-step instructions, then be sure to comment on the recipe post and let me know that you made it — that will enter you for a chance to win the Amazon gift card!

Variations and Substitutions

If necessary, use frozen blueberries but thaw and drain them first.
Replace the blueberries in this recipe with fresh blackberries or raspberries to make another delicious variation.
