The Cheesecake Factory Strawberry Shortcake is a delicious dessert. It is made with shortcake biscuits, sugared strawberries, and vanilla ice cream. This sweet dessert is served with a dollop of whipped cream.
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!
