How to cook deliciously - Large Strawberry Shortcake

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Stage

Combine strawberries and sugar in a small bowl; cover and refrigerate until serving.

Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 8 to 10 times.

While shortcakes cool, beat cream in a large bowl until it begins to thicken. Add honey; beat until stiff peaks form.

7. Stage

Place 1 cooled shortcake on a serving platter; layer with 1/2 of the strawberries and whipped cream. Top with remaining shortcake, strawberries, and cream. Serve immediately.
