STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKES FOR 2 (AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN)



Strawberry Shortcakes for 2 (America's Test Kitchen) image

Since there are only two of us in the house (well only 2 humans), I don't like to make desserts because there's SO MUCH. So when I came across this recipe I had to try it. It was delicious and the portions were just perfect for us. From Cooking For Two 2009, America's Test Kitchen

Provided by Twiggyann

Categories     Dessert

Time 32m

Yield 2 shortcakes, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
2 tablespoons half-and-half
1 large egg, room temperature
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled
5 teaspoons sugar
1/3 cup heavy cream, chilled
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the shortcakes, use first 8 ingredients: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees with the rack in the middle position. Line a rimmed cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a food processor, mix the flour, 5 teaspoons of sugar, the baking powder, and salt until combined (about 3 pulses) then add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal (about 15 pulses).
  • Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Whisk the half-and-half and the whole egg together then mix into the flour mixture with a rubber spatula until large clumps form. The recipe indicates that using regular milk is ok but not as rich as the half-and-half and that using heavy cream makes the cakes too dense.
  • Turn the mixture onto a floured board and shape the dough into two circles about 2-1/2 inches in diameter and about 1 inch thick.
  • Brush the tops with the egg white. Then sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1 teaspoon of sugar.
  • Place on prepared cookie sheet and bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes, turning the pan halfway through cooking.
  • Cool on wire wrack.
  • For the fruit use the next 2 ingredients: Crush 3/4 cup (about 3.75 ounces) of the strawberries with a potato masher in a medium bowl. Slice the remaining strawberries and fold them into the crushed berries, along with the sugar. Let the mixture sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  • For the whipped cream use the last 3 ingredients:.
  • Whip the cream, sugar and vanilla together in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium spead until frothy -- about 1 minute. Then turn to high and whip to soft peaks, 1-3 minutes. Of course, store bought whipped cream will work, too.
  • To serve: Slice the shortcake horizontally. Place some of the strawberries on the bottom half, put a dollop or two of whipped cream on the strawberries and top with the other half of the short cake.

CHEATERS STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE



Cheaters Strawberry Shortcake image

It's mid March and the grocery store has brought in strawberries from Florida. Ahhhh, Spring is here at last. What better way to celebrate than with Strawberry Shortcake. This is my Spring version. Only a few ingredients and very little time involved. The decision to use sugar on the berries will depend on their natural sweetness. I find our local berries are generally sweeter than imported, simply because they are on the plant longer. This dessert looks beautiful when assembled as one cake. However, once you start to cut it.....the top layer slips because of the cream and berries. Therefore, I've chosen to cut into individual servings first, before assembling. Either way, it's yummy. Prep/Cooking Time does not include time for baking the cake.

Categories     Dessert

Time 30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

240 g white cake mix (single layer)
3 cups strawberries, sliced
2 tablespoons sugar (optional)
1 (1 liter) container Cool Whip, thawed (whipped cream can also be used)

Steps:

  • Bake cake according to package instruction. Cool on a wire rack.
  • While the cake is cooling, gently toss the strawberry slices with sugar (if using). Let sit on the counter for 30 minutes. You'll also get some very nice juice to drizzle.
  • To serve, cut cake into individual serving size pieces. Then cut each piece horizontally into two layers.
  • Spread the bottom layer with Cool Whip. Top with some of the strawberries. Do not mound them, or the next layer will slide off.
  • Top with second layer of cake and press gently.
  • Add a large dollop of Cool Whip and garnish with more strawberries.
  • Yes -- that simple.

Tips:

  • Use ripe strawberries: The riper the strawberries, the sweeter and more flavorful your shortcake will be.
  • Macerate the strawberries: Tossing the strawberries with sugar and letting them sit for a while helps to draw out their juices and make them even more flavorful.
  • Use fresh whipped cream: Fresh whipped cream is light and fluffy, and it pairs perfectly with the sweet strawberries and shortcake.
  • Assemble the shortcake just before serving: This will help to prevent the shortcake from getting soggy.

Conclusion:

Making a strawberry shortcake from scratch can be a lot of work, but it's definitely worth it. The combination of sweet strawberries, fluffy whipped cream, and tender shortcake is simply irresistible. This recipe for Twinkie Refrigerator Strawberry Shortcake is a great way to enjoy this classic dessert without all the hassle. It's quick and easy to make, and it's always a hit with family and friends. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
