1 c Whipping cream; whipped

Biscuits:

Pre-heat oven to 450°F.

Sift flour with baking powder and salt. Cut in butter. Add 2 c cream,
blend to soft dough. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and
roll out to 3/4" thickness. Cut into 1-1/2" squares. Transfer to an
un-greased baking sheet, spacing 1/2" apart.

Bake until golden, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Berries:

Prepare the strawberries, mix with sugar and let sit in your
refrigerator for an hour. Stir at least twice.

Pat the dough into a greased cake pan to the same thickness as the
biscuits, don't touch the sides of the pan. Bake at 425°F until
golden brown. Turn out the shortcake and let it cool enough to
handle, then slice the it in half horizontally. Place the bottom half
on a serving platter (cut side up), fill with half the prepared
strawberries. Place the other half of the shortcake (cut side down)
and top with the remaining strawberries.

Slice the cake in wedges, serve on pretty plates

Pass the whipped cream and let everyone put a big dollop on top.
