15 15 30

Ingredients

  • 1 package (8-1/2 ounces) corn bread/muffin mix
  • 2 cups halved fresh strawberries
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries, thawed
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 5 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • Vanilla ice cream

Directions

  • Prepare corn bread batter according to package directions. Fill six greased star-shaped cups or muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the strawberries and blueberries; sprinkle with sugar and gently toss to coat.
  • Cool shortcakes for 10 minutes before carefully removing from pan to a wire rack. Drizzle vinegar over berries; toss to coat. Top each shortcake with a scoop of ice cream and berry mixture. Yield: 6 servings.
