Quadruple berry crisp a la mode

Quadruple Berry Crisp a la Mode


This was my take on Mountain Mama Cooks': Triple Berry Crisp, but I just added in some raspberries. And a lot more butter... oops.  But it sure was delicious!!

Favorite parts:
Blueberries
Blackberries
Raspberries
Strawberries
Walnuts
Oats
Brown Sugar
Vanilla Ice Cream
Cool Whip


Add a scoop of ice cream next to the berry crisp and a dollop of cool whip on top-- I like a little drizzle of the extra juice leftover from the sugary fruit mixture on top.  Ingredients really come together to give a warm and cold contrast with the berry and crispy oats and the ice cream.  Deeelicious!!

Quick and Easy Berry Shortcake

Quick and Easy Berry Shortcake 



Ingredients:
Strawberries
Blackberries
Raspberries
Granulated Sugar (about 1 1/2 C)
Pillsbury Flaky Biscuits
Confectioners sugar (dusting)
Ice Cream
Whipped Cream


Rinse and combine blackberries, raspberries and quartered strawberries with 
1 cup sugar in a bowl and mix well.  
Add extra scoop of sugar on top.   Cover with saran wrap and put in the refrigerator. 




Open the biscuits and separate each one.  Pour more sugar into a bowl and 
coat each biscuit on all sides (including around the sides!)
Grease a cookie sheet lined with tin foil with butter and put biscuits on top.  
Cook as the directions instruct, usually about 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. 
Cut biscuit (or pull apart) in half and add berry mixture between and on top of the 
biscuit pieces, and drizzle extra juice on top.  
Add some whipped cream or ice cream to the side.  
Serve warm.
