How To Make Strawberry Shortcake

On the occasion of weekend, let's make a delicious dish to treat all the member of the family. Everybody must be very happy and surprised at your hand-made gift.

Wow! Let's make a strawberry shortcake - a popular dessert is easy to make.

Simply one of the world's great desserts: strawberries and lightly whipped cream on top of a shortcake biscuit. You'll need to start with one recipe of our shortcakes, which makes enough for eight to twelve shortcake desserts.

Things You'll Need:

* 2 cups flour
* 3 teaspoons baking powder
* 3 tablespoons sugar
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 4 tablespoons vegetable shortening
* 1 cup milk
* 2 pints fresh strawberries
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 1 cup whipped cream
* Cooking Spray
* Oven (Preheat to 425 degrees F)
* Food Chopper or mini processor
* Mixing bowl
* Baking Sheet
* Round Biscuit Cutter

Step by Step instructions:

* Step 1
Combine your dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Stir dry ingredients together until they are mixed well.

*Step 2
Next carefully fold in your liquid ingredients.

4 tablespoons vegetable shortening
1 cup milk

Once you have a soft shortcake dough forming in your bowl, turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently by hand. Pat the dough to a 1/2 inch thickness and use a round biscuit cutter to form individual shortcakes.

*Step 3
Spray the baking sheet with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Evenly space the small shortcakes on your greased baking sheet and place in your 425 degree F oven. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes.

*Step 4
While your shortcakes are baking, you can prepare your strawberry topping. Reserve 6 strawberries from the package and slice them in half. Using your food processor, combine the remaining strawberries and 1/2 cup sugar until they form a strawberry puree.

* Step 5
Once individual shortcakes have cooled, top with strawberry puree, a dollop of whipped cream, and half a sliced strawberry. You can serve these homemade strawberry shortcakes either warm or chilled depending on your tastes.
