Time 50m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3/4 cup self-rising flour, plus more for work surface
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar substitute (recommended: Splenda)
1/2 cup fat free milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon canola oil
Butter flavored cooking spray
3 tablespoons light margarine
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon brandy
2 to 3 cups sliced strawberries, plus more for garnish
Ground cinnamon, for sprinkling
Sugar substitute, for sprinkling (recommended: Splenda)
Light (low-sugar-fat) vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • Fire up the grill to medium-high.
  • For the shortcake:
  • Toss the dry ingredients together in a large bowl, mixing well. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, egg and oil. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, beating lightly with a spoon. This will become a very thick-like cookie dough. Knead the dough on a lightly floured work surface. Roll the dough out until 3/4 inches thick. Cut into biscuits about 2-inches in diameter (I use a juice glass). Spray a perforated grill pan with the butter cooking spray and put on the grill to heat. When hot, add the biscuits and cook for 5 to 10 minutes; (check your heat to make sure the biscuits don't burn). Flip and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Combine the margarine, honey and brandy in a small sauce pot over low heat. When the margarine has melted, remove from the heat.
  • At this point the biscuits are ready to split, even if they're not fully cooked. Baste the split sides with basting sauce and put back on the grill, split sides down. Once back on the grill baste the tops with more of the basting sauce. Cook for 5 minutes, flipping and basting until the biscuits have good grill marks and are crispy. biscuit.
  • Cook's Note: IMPORTANT!
  • The biscuits need to cook for about 15 minutes (about half way) and then add the strawberries to the grill pan with the biscuits. Toss and sprinkle lightly with the cinnamon and splenda (it's ok if some gets on the biscuits too). The strawberries don't need to cook for too long- they get mushy if they're overcooked so it's a delicate dance you do here so it all comes out perfect and hot!
  • When the biscuits are ready and the strawberries are steaming, lay the biscuits down, open faced, on desert plates. Top with the hot strawberries and a scoop of the ice cream. Garnish with fresh sliced strawberries and. drizzle with the remaining brandy basting sauce, for that extra sweet kick!
  • YUM!!!

Categories     dessert

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
20 strawberries, hulled
Four 3- to 4-inch-thick slices cut from a store-bought angel food cake
1 cup heavy whipping cream
8 ounces mascarpone
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons store-bought balsamic glaze
4 sprigs fresh mint

Steps:

  • Heat a grill to medium-high heat or place a grill pan on the stove over medium-high heat. Generously grease the grill grates with the vegetable oil. Slide 5 strawberries on a skewer, pushing the skewer through the cores. Repeat this process to assemble 3 more skewers. Place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning as needed, until dark grill marks are created, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove half the strawberries from the skewers to a large bowl and use a fork to mash them. Stir in the remaining strawberries and set aside.
  • Grill the cake slices until they have grill marks, 30 to 45 seconds per side (do not let the cake slices cook for more than 1 minute or they will start to stick).
  • Combine the whipping cream, mascarpone and confectioners' sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer. Whip until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes. Plate the cakes individually and top each with some strawberries. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the berries. Dollop the whipped cream on top and garnish each plate with a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately.

Time 5h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Reynolds Wrap® Non Stick Aluminum Foil
1 ½ pounds fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
⅓ cup granulated sugar
8 Reynolds® Aluminum Foil Baking Cups - jumbo
1 ½ cups heavy cream
½ cup powdered sugar
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and place a rack in the center of the oven. Line a 9x5-inch baking pan with Reynolds Wrap® Non Stick Aluminum Foil and set aside.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Cream together softened butter and cream cheese in the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Stop the mixer occasionally to scrape down the bowl and make sure that the butter and cream cheese are evenly mixed. Add the sugar to the butter and cream cheese mixture, and beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes.
  • Beat in one egg at a time, mixing for one minute after each addition. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Beat in vanilla extract.
  • Add dry ingredients all at once. Beat on low speed until dry ingredients are completely incorporated. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, rotating once or twice during baking. Bake until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool to room temperature. Wrap the cooled cake and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
  • Slice the chilled pound cake into 8 thick slices.
  • Toss the strawberries together with the sugar in a small bowl. Allow to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
  • Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar, salt and vanilla until soft peaks form. Set aside.
  • Grill the slices of pound cake over a warm, greased grill until golden brown grill marks appear on both sides of cake, flipping once.
  • Warm the strawberries on the grill by spooning strawberries among 8 Jumbo Reynolds® Aluminum Foil Baking Cups and warming alongside the pound cake.
  • Serve warm pound cake slices with warmed strawberries and sweet cream.

  • Serve your shortcake immediately. This is when it is at its best.
