Ok
whipped cream -
1c heavy cream, 1teasp vanilla (if you use the mccormick, an overflowing capful works LOL) 1/4c granulated sugar (or to taste). Beat til it forms soft peaks. Metal or glass bowl, beaters and bowl must be cool or cold and very dry.
Strawberries - 1quart - slice 'em up, put about 2tablespoons - 1/4cup granulated sugar on them, set aside so they get gooey. Give them 30-60min, mix them up once or twice while waiting.
I use bisquick so it's not EXACTLY scratch but hey.
2 1/3 c bisquick, 1/2cup milk, 3Tablespoons granulated sugar, 3Tablespoons melted butter
Mix all, drop by spoon onto ungreased cookie sheet, bake 10-12min or until golden-ish. At 425.
This makes about 6 shortcakes depending on how big your spoon is ;-)
Re: Butterbeans
ugh wait when I say "mix all" I mean the bisquick stuff. LOL Mix the bisquick, milk, 3T sugar and 3T butter, drop, bake.
Then assemble by topping w/the strawberries & whipped cream.
You can even crumble the shortcakes and layer it all in champagne glasses ;-)
kori--that's exactly how I make strawberry shortcakes as well.....I love the bisquick ones!!!! They are on the dry-ish side so they soak in all the strawberry juice so well!
yummmm-o. I will be making these sometime this week now!
ha I would too if I could find any strawberries that look good! Well, that & my oven goes nuclear on us. I HATE baking with electric. So so so sucky.
I think I'm bringing it to pass at SIL's grad party Sat, though.
