Step 1

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.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

Now, take a 6-quart stainless steel bowl and add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix these using a whisk.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

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℉.

Step 7

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.

Step 8

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!
