Strawberry Shortcake Recipes

Strawberry shortcake is a luxurious dessert made using layers of whipped cream sandwiched between shortcake biscuits and fresh sweetned strawberries. Often layers of sponge cake are used instead of shortcake for a soft, melt-in-the mouth pudding to satisfy any sweet tooth.

Early American recipes used a pie crust instead of shortcake but you can adapt your home-made strawberry shortcake recipes to taste. For a fruity twist try using other summer berries for a blueberry or raspberry shortcake.

You can accompany your strawbery shortcake with fresh vanilla ice-cream for a heavenly marriage of flavours, perfect to enjoy on a summers evening or for a decadent finale to a dinner party.
