A Valentine’s Day classic, strawberry shortcake couples two special ingredients that are loved by almost everyone—whipped cream and strawberries. If you’re single or want a different kind of experience, make it a Galentine’s Day cake by making a batch of mini strawberry shortcakes. Strawberry shortcake’s enduring appeal comes from the way it pairs juicy, sweet strawberries with rich, airy whipped cream and crumbly biscuits – a combination that many find irresistible. The cake itself is light yet comforting, built from tender, buttery layers that soak up the strawberry juices.

Directions

Description - Step 1

Step 1: Macerate the strawberries

Combine the quartered strawberries, ¼ cup sugar, and lemon juice in a large bowl and toss. Set aside to macerate for at least 30 minutes while making the biscuits. The sugar will draw out the natural juices, creating a sweet syrup.

Step 6: Shape and bake the biscuits

Using a ¼-cup measuring cup or ice cream scoop, drop 8 mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Brush the tops lightly with heavy cream. Bake for 15-18 minutes until the tops are golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Step 8: Assemble the strawberry shortcakes

Split warm or room temperature biscuits in half crosswise using a serrated knife. Place the bottom half on the serving plate. Spoon a generous amount of macerated strawberries with their juices over the bottom half. Add a dollop of whipped cream. Top with the other biscuit half. Add more strawberries and another dollop of whipped cream on top. Repeat with the rest. Serve immediately.

Plating Instructions

For an elegant presentation, dust the top of the biscuit half with powdered sugar before placing it on a decorative plate. Arrange perfect strawberry slices on top.

Pairing Instructions

Strawberry shortcake is already wholesome on its own, but if you want to be extra, pair it with vanilla ice cream. For adults, serve alongside champagne or sparkling rosé.

Garnishing Instructions

Top the strawberry shortcakes with a spring of fresh mint, or a drizzle of strawberry syrup.
