Ingredients
- 2 quarts fresh strawberries â cleaned and halved
- 1 pint heavy cream or whipping cream
- For the Shortcake:
- To make a bigger stack of shortcakes double this recipe. (I did)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour - sifted
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 4 tablespoons butter
- ¾ cups light cream or buttermilk
- 4 â 5 tablespoons sugar
Directions
- Preheat Oven 350 degrees:
- Sift flour, baking powder and sugar into a bowl. Cut in the butter. Work the batter with your fingers. Add the cream or buttermilk and stir gently and quickly until dough is formed.
- Flour a surface and knead the dough gently until no creases are left.
- Roll out the dough to about ½ inch thickness. Place on parchment paper or a buttered cookie sheet.
- Bake about 20-25 minutes - until slightly golden.
- Let cool, then cut the biscuits in half through the center; making a top and bottom half.
- Whip the cream with a tablespoon of powdered sugar.
- Sandwich the strawberries and whip cream between the layers of biscuit to build your cake.
