No Fuss Strawberry Shortcake Recipes

Steps:

• Mix strawberries with 3 tablespoons sugar and refrigerate while juices develop, at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Add heavy cream and mix until just combined. Place mixture in an ungreased 8-inch square pan and bake until golden, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Remove shortcake from pan and place on a rack to cool slightly. Cut into 6 pieces and split each piece in half horizontally.
• Spoon some of the strawberries with their juice onto each shortcake bottom. Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream and then the shortcake top. Spoon more strawberries over the top and serve.
• Using a mixer, beat the heavy cream, sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest until soft peaks form, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Line a 20cm cake tin or dish (either a square or rectangle works well) with cling film, leaving an overhang. Whip 500ml of the cream, the vanilla, orange blossom water and 125g icing sugar with an electric whisk until thick and billowy.
• Add a layer of biscuits to the tin, and spoon over some of the cream, about 1cm thick all over. Add a layer of strawberry slices, then repeat with the cream, biscuits and strawberries until you fill the tin, finishing on a layer of biscuit. You'll have some strawberries left over to serve. Press everything down well so every biscuit is covered in cream. Cover and chill overnight.
• To serve, flip the tin onto a serving plate, and remove the cling film. Whip the remaining 100ml cream with 1 tbsp icing sugar and dollop on top of the cake, swirling it around. Top with the remaining strawberry slices in lines, sift over the remaining 1 tbsp icing sugar, and sprinkle the biscuit crumbs in between the rows of strawberries. Cut into slices to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a food processor, combine flour, butter, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt; process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk; pulse just until moistened, 4 or 5 times. Do not overprocess.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface; with floured hands, gently pat dough into a 4-by-8-inch rectangle.
• Dust a large knife with flour; cut dough into 8 squares. Transfer to a baking sheet; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake until golden, 25 to 30 minutes; cool on baking sheet. To serve, split biscuits with a serrated knife; layer with berries and Whipped Cream.

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
• Sprinkle the 4 cups of mini marshmallows on the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
• In a bowl, combine the frozen strawberries and jello gelatin powder; set aside.
• To make the cake: in a bowl, cream together the Crisco shortening, butter and sugar for about 2 minutes.
• Add in eggs and almond extract; beat for about 3-4 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt.
• Add to the creamed mixture alternately with the half and half cream; mix well until combined.
• Pour over the marshmallows in the pan.
• Spoon the strawberry mixture over the batter (don't worry about any bare spots!).
• Bake for 45-50 minutes.
• Cut in squares and serve with whipping cream of Cool Whip topping.
• Delicious!

Steps:

• Toss the strawberries with 1 cup (250 ml) sugar in a bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• In a separate bowl combine the 2 tablespoons sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Blend in the butter.
• Add the milk and vanilla and mix well.
• Grease two 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pans and divide the batter between them.
• Bake in a preheated 450°F (230°C) oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and cool.
• Place one cake upside-down on a serving platter and top with half the strawberries.
• Top with the remaining cake layer and the rest of the strawberries.
• Serve garnished with whipped cream.
