Yes, you can substitute strawberries with other berries like blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries. Adjust the quantity if necessary based on the berry's size and moisture content.

Berry Bikkies are done when they are lightly golden around the edges, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking time typically ranges from 15 to 18 minutes.

Cooking Tips:

- Properly mix the butter and sugar until light and fluffy for a great biscuit base.

- Gently fold the strawberries into the batter to avoid crushing them.

- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to help the bikkies keep their shape.

- Use parchment paper or silicone baking mats to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
