Homemade Strawberry Shortcakes

For the topping, clean berries, cut into slices and put in a bowl without straining any water off them after you’ve cleaned them. Add powdered sugar to your desired taste and mix well. Put in the fridge to bring out the natural juices of the berries. The powdered sugar thickens the juices to form a “sauce.”

Mix all shortcake ingredients together and drop by large spoonfuls on a Silpat or parchment paper-lined baking sheet. If you don’t have either of the above, use a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 425ºF for 10 minutes. Move to a wire rack and cool completely.

Top with sweetened strawberries and milk, Cool Whip or ice cream. Yummy!
