Mom’S Berry Dumplings

• 4 cups Berries, Hulled And Quartered (or Any Fruit Of Your Choice)
• 1/3 cups Sugar
• 2 cups All-purpose Baking Mix (Store-Bought Or Use Included Homemade Recipe)
• 2/3 cups Milk
• FOR THE HOMEMADE BAKING MIX:
• 2 cups All-purpose Flour
• 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1/3 cups Vegetable Shortening Or Butter

1. Stir together the strawberries (or fruit of choice) and sugar in a skillet. Let sit for about 10 minutes until juice forms. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook uncovered for about 10 minutes, just until the berries begin to soften but aren't mushy.
2. While the berries are simmering, mix together 2 cups of the all-purpose baking mix and milk until a soft dough forms. You can use a store-bought mix, or follow the instructions at the end of this recipe for homemade baking mix.
3. Using a small spoon, drop dough evenly over the berry mixture. Cover the pan, reduce heat to low and cook for another 8-10 minutes. Until the dumplings have doubled in size and look dry on top.
4. Remove from heat and let stand for about 5 minutes. Serve warm, drizzled in cream.
5. For the homemade baking mix: Sift flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Cut shortening/butter in with a fork until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Store mixture in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 months. When ready to use, just mix together the appropriate amount of milk and baking mix to make up your batter.
