2-1/2 cups biscuit/baking mix
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
1/4 cup 2% milk
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsweetened pineapple tidbits, well drained

Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times. Pat or roll dough to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake 7-9 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
