Strawberry Shortcake Biscuits (2024)

Strawberry Shortcake Biscuits

Strawberry shortcake biscuits are a variation of classic strawberry shortcake that uses a sweet biscuit recipe instead of the traditional, scone-like dough usually used for shortcake.

Using this biscuit dough makes the recipe incredibly easy while still delivering that classic, crumbly, but soft texture, and the fresh strawberries and homemade whipped cream make the entire recipe explode with sweet flavors that no one can resist.

Why You'll Love These Strawberry Shortcake Biscuits

Biscuits have a texture that's hard to define. They're soft, but they're also a bit crumbly without being dry. We love using our sweet biscuit recipe for our strawberry shortcake because the texture is a little more moist and less granular than the classic dough used, and it has the perfect amount of sweetness. Here's why we think you'll love it.

• Simple Ingredients: This recipe uses simple baking staples found in any kitchen or grocery store.
• Classic Flavor: Strawberry shortcake is a classic dessert enjoyed by almost everyone.
• Quick and Easy: This recipe is beginner-friendly and comes together quickly.
• Customizable: Easily switch things up by replacing the strawberries with your other favorite berries or fruits for all kinds of shortcake options.

Ingredients

Both the whipped cream and sweet biscuit recipes use just a few simple ingredients, all of which are listed here. The exact amounts are in the recipe card at the end of the post.

• All-Purpose Flour, Salt, Baking Powder, Eggs, and Milk: These ingredients create the base for the biscuit dough.
• Cold Butter: Cold butter adds the necessary fat to the dough, and keeping the butter cold helps create a better rise as the biscuits bake.
• Sugar and Vanilla Extract: Sugar and vanilla give the biscuit dough its sweet flavor.
• Heavy Cream: Heavy cream is the base for the homemade whipped cream, giving it the body and fat content necessary to whip.
• Vanilla and Powdered Sugar: These ingredients combine to give the whipped cream a classic sweet flavor.
• Sliced Fresh Strawberries: You can't have a strawberry shortcake without strawberries!
