Ingredients
For the Biscuits
- 4 cups flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 5 teaspoons baking powder
- ¾ cups butter chilled
- 1 ½ cups whipping cream
For the Strawberry Filling
- 2 pounds strawberries rinsed
- ½ cup sugar
For the Whipped Cream
- 1 pint whipping cream
- ¼ cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
For the Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients. Grate or slice butter and add to the dry mixture. Using your hands or a pastry cutter, combine the dry ingredients and the butter until the mixture is crumbly and all of the butter pieces are pea-sized or smaller. Add whipping cream and use your hands to form the mixture into a soft dough.
- Once the dough forms, knead for 1-2 minutes. Roll out onto a floured surface until the dough is about 1/2 inch thick. Using a biscuit cutter or the mouth of a glass, cut into biscuits. Place biscuits onto a greased baking sheet and brush the tops with a little bit of melted butter.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
For the Strawberry Filling
- Hull and slice strawberries. Mash up about 1/4 of your strawberries to release the juices. Add the mashed strawberries back to the sliced strawberries. Sprinkle sugar over the top and let rest until ready to assemble the shortcakes.
For the Whipped Cream
- Mix whipping cream on high speed until soft peaks form. Then add the powdered sugar and vanilla. Mix until combined.
To Assemble the Strawberry Shortcakes
- Cut a biscuit in half and spoon strawberries over the bottom half - make sure you spoon some of the juices over the biscuit as well. Then, add whipped cream and place the top half on top. Top with more whipped cream if desired. Enjoy!
