The weather this summer has been crazy, it seems like all it does is rain but then we’ll have a beautiful sunny 85° day and then right back to a rainy 65°. At least making a summer dessert like Bisquick Strawberry Shortcake can make it seem like a nice sunny day even when it’s raining.
This dessert is so easy to make, and with just a few ingredients you can have a happy summer dessert in no time at all. You could make it even easier and just use store bought whipped topping but I think it’s worth a little extra effort to make your own Homemade Whipped Cream.
Traditionally, shortcake was made from a biscuit-like dough, split and fille with sweetened strawberries and cream. This version uses Bisquick, a pre-mixed baking mix, cuts down on prep time and saves on the number of ingredients and steps, leaving you with more time to actually enjoy dessert.
Whether you’re hosting a barbeque, planning a picnic, or enjoying a quiet summer evening at home, Bisquick Strawberry Shortcake is a go-to treat that never disappoints.
