Dessert: Strawberry Shortcake

Recipe by Donald Link Top buttery biscuits with the season's fresh, sweet berries and a dollop of sweet vanilla whipped cream.

Ingredients

1 qt. ripe strawberries
1/4 c. granulated sugar

Instructions

Cut strawberries into quarters and toss with granulated sugar. Let them sit for a few hours to extract some of the juice.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F, with the rack in the highest position.
Combine flour, cornmeal, granulated sugar, and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Add salt and cut in lard and butter with a pastry cutter, or your fingertips. Whisk together egg and milk and stir into dry ingredients.
Drop the batter, using a tablespoon, onto a lightly buttered sheet pan and form into biscuits about 3 inches in diameter. Bake for 15 minutes on the top rack, until lightly golden. Cool on rack.
Pour cream into a large mixing bowl, and whip until soft peaks form. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla, and beat a few minutes more.
Cut the biscuits in half and place a heaping spoon of strawberries with juice on top. Cover with whipped cream, replace the biscuit top, and add another dollop of whipped cream.
