Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Stainless Steel Bowl
  • 6-Quart Stainless Steel Bowl
  • Non-Stick Baking Pan
  • Whisk
  • Spoon
  • Knife

Ingredients
  

For Sugared Strawberries

  • 2 cup Strawberries (sliced)
  • ¼ cup Granulated Sugar

For Whipped Cream

  • 1 quart Heavy Cream
  • 4 ounces Powdered Sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon Vanilla

For Shortcake Biscuits

  • 2 pounds + 4 ounces All-Purpose Flour
  • 5 ounces Sugar
  • 2 ½ ounces Baking Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • 14 ounces Butter
  • 1 pint Cream
  • 1 pint Buttermilk

For Serving

  • 2 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, add the sliced strawberries and pour the sugar over them. Using a spoon, mix the sugar with the strawberries. When the sugar is somewhat dissolved, place the bowl in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
  • Then, take a stainless steel bowl and add heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk them until the cream has soft peaks. Set the bowl aside.
  • Now, take a 6-quart stainless steel bowl and add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix these using a whisk.
  • Then, add butter and whisk the mixture until it is crumbly. Then, pour the buttermilk and cream into the bowl and mix them for half a minute.
  • After that, lightly dust a surface with flour and take the mixture out on it. Knead it using your hands to make the biscuit dough. Roll out the dough to a thickness of ½ inch and cut circles 4-inch in diameter.
  • Place the dough circles in a non-stick baking pan but make sure that you place them apart. Place the baking tray into a preheated oven and bake them for 15 minutes at about 375℉.
  • When the biscuits are baked, take them out and slice them horizontally. Now, take the bottom half of the biscuit and place a spoon of sugared strawberries over it. Then, place two scoops of vanilla ice cream on the strawberries before placing the top half over it.
  • Spoon some more sugared strawberries at the top half of the biscuits and lastly, add a dollop of strawberry shortcake. Your delicious strawberry shortcake is ready!
