Classic Strawberries And Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the strawberries and sugar in a bowl; mash until the strawberries are completely crushed and the sugar is incorporated. Add the sour cream to the strawberries and stir until the mixture is pink in color. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl whip the cream and sugar with a mixer until thick but not stiff.
• Add the sour cream and beat until mixture is thoroughly combined.
• Continue to beat while gradually pouring in the liqueur.
• Divide strawberries between 6 dessert dishes, reserving 6 strawberries for garnish.
• Pour cream over berries; top with a reserved strawberry. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the shortcakes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk the heavy cream, sour cream and vanilla in a small bowl; refrigerate until ready to use. Pulse the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter; pulse until the mixture looks like fine meal. Pour in the chilled heavy cream mixture and pulse until just combined.
• Lightly flour a work surface and dump the dough onto it. Pat out the dough 1/2-inch thick. Cut out as many biscuits as you can with a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Then pat the remaining dough out to 1/2-inch thick again. Cut more biscuits; you should get 12.
• Put 6 of the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with cream, then top each cream-brushed biscuit with one of the remaining biscuit rounds. (This makes it easier to split once they are baked.) Brush the top of each biscuit stack with more heavy cream and sprinkle 1 teaspoon granulated sugar on each biscuit.
• Bake the biscuits until golden and puffed, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
• Meanwhile, for the topping: Toss the strawberries and 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar in a medium bowl.
• Just before serving, beat the heavy cream, sour cream, the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
• Split the shortcakes in half. Spoon half the cream on the bottom of the biscuits, top evenly with the strawberries and top with the remaining cream. Put each biscuit top on and serve.

Steps:

• In a saucepot over medium heat mix the frozen strawberries with the water. Cook until the strawberries have defrosted and the berries have slumped. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Taste the strawberries and add the sugar if desired. Divide between dessert bowls, top with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Mix the sour cream, vanilla and sugar together.
• Cut the strawberries into halves and place in serving dishes.
• Pour the cream mixture over the strawberries.
• Top with whipped cream if desired and serve.
