Sheet Pan Strawberry Shortcake

• servings: 8 servings
• active time: 30 minutes
• total time: 55 minutes

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/3 cup granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

3/4 cup (1.5 sticks) frozen unsalted butter, grated

3/4 cup cold heavy cream, plus more for brushing on top

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional: coarse sugar for topping

1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold

2 tablespoons powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C). Line a quarter sheet pan (13x9 inches) with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Add the cold grated butter to the flour mixture and stir together until well incorporated.

In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla. Pour the wet mixture into the flour mixture and gently stir until a shaggy dough forms. Use your hands to gently knead the dough just until it's well incorporated and there are no super dry spots.

Using a 2 tablespoon cookie dough scoop, scoop the dough onto the sheet pan into 5 rows of 3. The dough should be touching. Gently press each scoop down with your hands to flatten slightly.

Place in the freezer for 15 minutes (or the refrigerator for 30 minutes). Before baking, brush the tops of the biscuits with heavy cream, then sprinkle with coarse sugar.

Bake for 20-22 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown and the tops are just lightly browned. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean. Let the biscuits cool completely.

While the biscuits are in the oven, make the strawberries and whipped cream. In a large bowl, stir together the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice and let sit for 30 minutes.

Add the chilled heavy cream to a large bowl with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed until medium peaks form and refrigerate until ready to use.

Once the biscuits are cooled, top with a layer of whipped cream, then spoon the strawberries and the accumulated juices over the top. If you're making this ahead of time, wait to assemble the dessert until just before serving. Enjoy!
