2 c. Bisquick
1/2 c. milk
1/4 c. butter, melted
2 tbsp. sugar
1 can pie filling

Mix milk and melted butter. Mix Bisquick and sugar. Mix milk mixture with Bisquick, mixture using a fork until a soft dough is formed. Beat mixture vigorously (about 20 strokes). Turn dough out on a floured surface and knead 8- 10 times. Roll dough out until 1/2 inch thick. Cut out six 3 inch shortcakes. Dip fingers in flour and press a deep indention (about 2 inches across) in the center of each shortcake.

Fill each indentation with about 2 tablespoons pie filling. Bake about 10 minutes on a greased cookie sheet. Allow to cool. Spread top with frosting, if desired. Serves 6.

SHORTCAKE KOLACHE FROSTING:

1/2 c. powdered sugar
Few drops of milk

Mix milk with powdered sugar. Stir until a thick, pourable consistency. Slowly pour frosting over cooled Kolaches.
