Berry Shortcakes

Don’t be fooled if you think that photo looks like it holds the secret to a real shortcake biscuit recipe. We actually just use store-bought biscuits (or ones made from a mix) for this semi-homemade take on the summer classic. After all, fresh strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries, along with homemade whipped cream, are the real stars here. After soaking the fruit with a bit of sugar and whipping up cream and sugar, you’ll halve the biscuits, and use them to sandwich a mixture of fruit and cream. This is what long summer nights are made of. (And yes, we’re referring to the dessert and our little shortcut.)
