Strawberry
Shortcake
1 1/2 pints Branstrator Strawberries, hulled and halved or quartered, depending on size
4 Sweet Miss Shortcakes
3 Tablespoons confectioner's sugar
1 cup Whipping Cream
Mint sprigs, for garnish
Combine 1 cup of strawberries with the confectioner's sugar. Mash with a fork. Stir in the remaining strawberries. Let stand 10 minutes to 1 hour at room temperature. In a bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form.
To serve slice each shortcake in half horizontally, and place the bottom halves on individual plates. Top each half of shortcake with some of the whipped cream, and divide the berries among the remaining shortcakes. Replace the shortcake tops and garnish with fresh mint. Serve with the remaining whipped cream.
