Strawberry-licious!

On Sunday, I had to face the reality that Monday I would be doing a fast/cleanse of my body for 4 days. I decided we needed a delicious dessert to look back on and remember, long after the the last of delicious food had left my system. Here is what i created.

Smarties Strawberry Shortcake
425* 10-15 Mintes, yields 4 biscuits

Biscuits
1C Flour
1/2 Tbs. Baking Powder
1/4 Tsp. Salt
1 1/2 Tbs. Sugar
1/2 stick COLD Butter
1/3-1/2 C Milk
1 Large strawberry, or 2 med.

Strawberry's
Slice desired # of strawberries, coat with sugar, set aside for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally until syrup is created.

Directions
Combine Flour, Baking Powder, Salt and Sugar. Cut butter into flour mixture using a knife, fingers or pastry cutter. Desired consistancy has butter mixed in well, and a few small pea sized pieces. (think pie crust). Create a well in the middle of the four/butter mixture. Grate the strawberry(s) with the large end of a cheese grater, into the well, add milk and stir.
