This is such a great dessert to serve a crowd, especially if you downsize the biscuits to a slider size. Since our annual neighborhood block party takes place in late June every summer, I've made it a tradition to hit the farmers market in the morning for a flat of freshly picked strawberries while my husband hangs at home whipping up a batch of hislegendary biscuits.
Although some people prefer sponge cake or angel food, traditional shortcake is made with biscuits and I am a purist. Especially when it involvesmy husband's biscuits. His recipe is legendary amongst our friends because the biscuits are incredibly fluffy and delicious. The perfect base for a pile of gorgeous, juicy berries.
Speaking of strawberries, when it comes to shortcake, you really need the freshest berries possible. Plan to make this dessert after a trip to the berry farm or a visit to the farmer’s market. Since farmer’s market berries are notoriously fragile compared to their supermarket cousins, its important to handle them as delicately as possible. A simple rinse under cool water followed by hulling, slicing and a sprinkle of sugar is all they need.
当然任何娃娃的皇冠上的宝石big, fluffy dollop of whipped cream. We’ve given ours a twist that is both decadent and practical: ours is a 50/50 blend of heavy whipping cream and full-fat Greek Yogurt. The result is a rich, fluffy, slightly-tangy dollop that will hold up in the summer heat far longer than traditional whipped cream — it's absolutely ideal for a picnic or summer BBQ.
If you’re planning to feed a crowd, prep everything in advance. At dessert time spend a few moments assembling a gigantic tray of these beauties for a major wow. Or, set everything out DIY style and let your guests assemble at their leisure. Either way, these gorgeous sliders are sure to be a home run.
