Ingredients
Method
Prepare Shortcake Biscuits
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the heavy cream until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut into rounds and place on a baking sheet.
- Brush the tops with additional heavy cream. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
Prepare Strawberry Filling
- In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and granulated sugar. Let sit for about 15 minutes to macerate.
Make Whipped Cream
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Assemble Dessert
- Slice the shortcake biscuits in half horizontally. Layer the bottom half with strawberries, followed by whipped cream, and then the top half.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes
For best results, use fresh strawberries and serve the dessert immediately after assembling to prevent sogginess.
