Yield 6 biscuits, 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 -1 1/4 cup half & half light cream
2 cups blueberries, fresh, or frozen
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon fat-free half-and-half

Steps:

For the biscuits:.
combine ingredients until crumbly in bowl, then knead 3-4 times with your hands in the bowl. I start off with 1 cup half and half, then add by the tablespoon until the dough sticks together without being sticky.
turn out onto a lightly floured counter-top and pat down with your hands to about 1 inch in thickness.
use a biscuit cutter or the top of a glass to cut rounds and place on a baking sheet.
collect the scraps and pat down to use all remaining dough - makes about 6 biscuits.
bake at 400 for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
For the filling:.
combine ingredients and cook on medium high until boiling and beginning to thicken.
reduce heat to medium and cook for about 5 minutes, then turn off heat.
Once biscuits have baked, hollow out the centers and fill with blueberry filling. Add a drizzle of glaze just before serving (combine glaze ingredients, stir until smooth and set aside until needed).
