   crumbs. Combine egg and cream; add all at once to dry ingredients, stirring
   only to moisten. Turn dough out on floured surface; knead gently 1/2
   minute. Pat or roll dough to 1/2 inch. Cut 6 biscuits with floured 2

   oven (450ø) about 10 minutes. Split shortcakes; butter bottom layers. Fill
   and top with peaches and whipped cream. Serve warm.
