Just before serving, beat 1 cup of the remaining heavy cream, the remaining sour cream, the remaining brown sugar, and the remaining vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
Step 19
Split the shortcakes in half.

Spoon 1/2 of the cream mixture on the bottoms of the biscuits.
Step 21
Top the cream layer evenly with the strawberries.
Step 22
Top the strawberries with the remaining cream mixture.
Step 23
Replace the biscuit tops and serve.
