Ingredients

Shortcake

• 2 cups Bisquick
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 3/4 cup milk

Strawberries

• 2 quarts fresh strawberries
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

Prepare the shortcake

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick and sugar. Stir in milk until a soft dough forms.
2. Drop dough by spoonfuls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.

Prepare the strawberries

1. Wash, hull, and slice strawberries. Place in a bowl. Add sugar and vanilla, then gently mash with a strawberry masher (or fork) to release juices. Let sit for a few minutes to get nice and syrupy.

Assemble

1. Break open warm shortcakes. Spoon strawberries and juice over the top. Finish with a dollop of Cool Whip or whipped cream. Best served warm with those sweet, juicy berries soaking right in!
