I've been making this for years. I believe it may have come from Canadian Living. Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons cold butter |
1 egg |
1 cup sour cream |
2 tablespoons light cream |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1 cup whipping cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 and dust a large baking sheet with flour or use parchment paper.
2. Combine sliced strawberries with sugar and let stand for 1 hour.
3. Whip cream with a small amount of sugar (to your liking) and refrigerate.
4. Make the biscuits by combining the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
5. Cut cold butter into the dry ingredients.
6. Beat egg lightly and combine with the sour cream.
7. Blend together briefly with a fork, form into a ball and place on floured counter.
8. Roll dough out to about 3/4 inch thickness and cut about ten 2 1/2 inch biscuits.
9. Place on baking sheet, brush tops with cream and sprinkle on sugar.
10. Bake for 15 minutes, until well risen and golden brown.
11. You will need 6 biscuits for the recipe.
12. Split the warm biscuits and on the bottom half place 1/4 cup strawberries. Add the top and cover with whipped cream. You may garnish with a whole strawberry.
