1/2 c Dark raisins

1/3 c Buttermilk

1/2 c carbonated water

MIXTURE-Empty the box of cereal into blender. Dump in cinnamon and brown sugar and use high speed, on-off, for about 3 seconds or till crumbled, but not powdered. Empty into small bowl. Stir in melted butter with fork till mixture is completely softened. Set aside. BISCUIT DOUGH-Use a 2-qt mixing bowl. Stir biscuick together with sugar and raisins. Put buttermilk, water and vanilla into measuring cup, without stirring and pour into Bisquick mixture. Use fork to mix until all of the liquid is absorbed. Then knead in the bowl with hands, dipping into additional Bisquick, to make dough smooth and no longer stick. Break dough up into 4 or 5 portions in the bowl - sprinkling the mixture over the dough and then working it into your hands till most of it is pretty well evenly distributed throughout the dough. Divide dough into 12 equal parts and shape each into 1/2" thick patty, arranging close together in Pam sprayed 2 8" round layer cake pans. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes or until evenly golden.
