Instructions

  1. Quick and Easy Assembly Assemble strawberry shortcake by cutting two slices of the pound cake and then slicing those in half.† In a bowl, place the 4 pieces of pound cake across from each other. Spoon defrosted strawberries onto cake; add one scoop of vanilla ice cream and top with whipped cream. While the Cracker Barrel may use frozen strawberries, I really like fresh much more. I think you can jazz up this recipe by using fresh strawberries, fresh whipped cream, and if you are up for it, a homemade pound cake. 
  2. From Scratch Method Prepare the strawberries several hours ahead of time by cleaning them, slicing them and placing them into a bowl. Add about 1 tablespoon of superfine sugar, if available, to the strawberries and mix well. Place strawberries in the refrigerator. The sugar will help to make the strawberries juicy. Whip the whipping cream with a mixer until firm. You may want to add a touch of vanilla to this for some extra flavor. When you are ready to serve the shortcakes, follow the directions above.
