Strawberry Filling Directions: Stir together strawberries, 2 tablespoons SPLENDA® Granulated Sweetener and balsamic vinegar; let stand 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Combine biscuit mix and 1/3 cup SPLENDA® Granulated Sweetener in a large bowl.

Stir together yogurt and vanilla; add to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 3 or 4 times. Pat dough to a 1/2-inch thickness. Cut with a 2 1/4-inch round cutter, reusing dough scraps, if necessary. Place shortcakes on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake 12 to 15 minutes.

Serve warm with sliced strawberries. Garnish, if desired.
