MIXED BERRY ICEBOX SHORTCAKES

The best part of these individual dessert jars is the bonus sauce that comes from macerating the berries, since the sugar helps coax out all the natural juices. Layer that sweet and tangy sauce with sweetened sour cream and crushed shortbread for the perfect ode to summer.

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2/3 cup heavy cream
2/3 cup sour cream
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped
1 1/4 cups raspberries
1 1/4 cups blueberries
1 1/4 cups chopped strawberries (from about 2 cups whole; cut into pieces about the same size as the raspberries)
1/4 cup sugar
6 round shortbread cookies, lightly crushed (about 4.7 ounces)

Steps:

Beat together the heavy cream, sour cream, corn syrup and vanilla bean seeds in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed to medium-stiff peaks, about 2 minutes. Spoon the cream mixture into a large resealable plastic bag or pastry bag.
Reserve 6 of the raspberries for serving. Toss together the blueberries, strawberries, sugar and remaining raspberries in a large bowl. Let sit at room temperature, tossing occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved and the berries are very juicy, about 30 minutes.
Neatly layer 2 tablespoons vanilla bean cream, 1 tablespoon crushed cookies and 2 tablespoons berries with juice in each of six 8-ounce mason jars, making sure each layer is pressed against the glass and visible. Repeat with 1 more layer of the cream, cookies and berries in each jar. Pipe any remaining cream on top of the berries. Secure the lids on the jars and refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to 12.
When ready to serve, remove the lids and garnish each jar with a reserved raspberry.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 cups fruity red wine such as Santa Maddalena, Barbera, Valpolicella, Merlot, or Zinfandel
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
About 1/2 cup sugar
1 lb strawberries (2 pt), trimmed, and halved if large

Steps:

Stir together wine, lemon juice, and sugar (to taste) in a bowl. Stir in strawberries and let macerate at room temperature 1 hour, then chill until cold, up to 1 hour but no longer. (Fruit will become too soft if it steeps for more than 2 hours.)
Serve berries in small bowls with some of their juices.

Tips:

Choose ripe, flavorful berries for the maceration. Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries are all great choices.
Use a good quality red wine for the maceration. A dry red wine with bold flavors, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, will work well.
Let the berries macerate in the red wine for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will allow the flavors of the wine to infuse into the berries.
When making the shortcakes, be sure to use cold butter and buttermilk. This will help to create a light and flaky texture.
Don't overmix the shortcake dough. Overmixing will result in tough shortcakes.
Bake the shortcakes until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Serve the shortcakes warm with the macerated berries and whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Red wine macerated berry shortcakes are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet berries, tangy red wine, and fluffy shortcakes is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
