Strawberry shortcakes forever.
Ingredients
  • FOR THE SHORTCAKE
  • 2 pt. fresh strawberries, sliced
  • ¼ c. plus 3 tbsp. sugar, divided
  • Cooking spray, for pan
  • 2¼ c. all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. baking soda
  • ¼ tsp. kosher salt
  • 1½ c. heavy cream
  • FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM
  • 1½ c. heavy cream
  • 1½ tsp. pure vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine strawberries and 3 tablespoons sugar and toss until coated. Refrigerate, 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour.
  2. Preheat oven to 400° and spray an 8”-x-8” baking pan with cooking spray. Stir together flour, remaining ¼ cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Pour in heavy cream and stir until just combined.
  3. Drop dough into prepared pan and press down evenly. Bake until edges are golden and a toothpick comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
  4. Meanwhile, make whipped cream topping: In a large bowl using a hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer using the whisk attachment, beat heavy cream and vanilla until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Keep chilled until ready to serve.
  5. To serve, slice cake into 12 pieces. Top bottom shortcake with sugared strawberries, then a second shortcake. Dollop with whipped cream.
