Star Belly Sneetches

My Mom gave me this good idea for a red, white, and blue breakfast.  

This is my favorite biscuit recipe:

 Baking Powder Biscuits

1 1/2 C flour

3/4 tsp salt

1 T sugar (I increased this to 3 T to make the biscuits sweet)

1 T baking powder

1/3 C canola oil

1/3 to about a 1/2 Cup milk

Mix dry ingredients together.  Add oil and milk all at once and combine.  Add more milk if mixture is too dry. Roll out to 1/2 inch thickness.  Cut out in star shape using a cookie cutter.  Bake at 450 degrees until brown (8-12  minutes).

**Adapted from a recipe donated by Kathy Swift to my Grandmas ward cookbook.

Notes: I doubled the recipe and got 16, 3 inch stars.  I served them with whipped cream (that had 1 tsp vanilla, sugar to taste and 1 cup raspberries beaten in), raspberry freezer jam, and blueberries on top.

Spencer told the girls that they might turn into star belly sneetches if they wolfed too many of them down.  Luckily they are all still ok.
