Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius / 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a pan, add 150 ml of the double cream and butter and mix gently until the butter melts. Remove from the heat and let it cool down, then add the vanilla extract.

  5. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden, then remove from the oven and let the shortcakes cool down.
  6. Use a sharp knife to halve the shortcakes, then beat the remaining cream until it forms stiff peaks.
  7. Spoon the cream onto half on the shortcakes, then add slices of strawberries and top wth the other half of the shortcakes.
