Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/4 cup of sugar
  • 2 cups of heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup of powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon of baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt

  1. Prepare the strawberries by mixing them with sugar and letting sit to release juices.

  8. Assemble by splitting the shortcakes, layering with strawberries and topping with whipped cream.

Notes

For variations, you can mix in other berries or adjust sweetness based on strawberry taste.
