# What You'll Need:
→ Biscuits
01 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 1 tablespoon baking powder
04 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
06 - 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
07 - 3/4 cup cold buttermilk, plus additional for brushing
08 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Strawberries
09 - 1.5 pounds fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
10 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar
11 - 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
→ Whipped Cream
12 - 1 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
13 - 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
14 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly distributed.
03 - Add the cubed cold butter to the flour mixture and cut it in using a pastry cutter or fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter visible.
04 - Stir in the cold buttermilk and vanilla extract just until the dough comes together; avoid overmixing to maintain tender biscuits.
05 - Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Using a 2.5-inch round cutter, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather scraps and recut as needed.
06 - Brush the tops of each biscuit lightly with buttermilk. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
07 - In a separate bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently and allow to sit for at least 20 minutes, letting the strawberries release their juices.
08 - Beat the chilled heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until soft peaks form. Refrigerate until assembly.
09 - Carefully split each cooled biscuit horizontally in half. Layer the bottom half with macerated strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream. Place the top biscuit half and add additional strawberries and a final dollop of whipped cream on top.
