Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp table salt
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream or whipping cream
  • 1 large egg
  • fresh sliced strawberries (or strawberries in syrup)
  • whipped cream

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
    1 1/2 cups all purpose flour, 2 3/4 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp table salt, 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • In another bowl, whisk the cream and egg until smooth.

  • Pour and mix the wet ingredients and dry ingredients.
  • Scoop the cookie dough in 1 1/2-ounce balls onto the baking sheet (a jumbo cookie scoop works well here).
  • Use the palm of your hand to gently flatten each to about 2" to 2 1/2" diameter.
  • Brush the tops of the shortcakes with cream, and sprinkle with coarse white sparkling sugar. (optional)
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden brown and puffed. Break one open to check if it's cooked through.
  • Let the shortcakes cool slightly. Let the shortcakes cool slightly. Then, split in half, top with whipped cream, and layer with the strawberries.

Notes

    • Don’t Overmix: Once the dough comes together, stop stirring! Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
    • Chill If Needed: If your dough feels sticky, pop it in the fridge for 10–15 minutes before scooping.
    • Bake Immediately: These cookies rise best when baked right after mixing; don’t let the dough sit too long.
    • Make It Extra: Use flavored whipped cream or add a drizzle of chocolate or balsamic glaze for a little wow.
    • Serve Warm: Shortcake cookies taste heavenly slightly warm with cold cream on top—just saying.
