Zubereitung von Chocolate Strawberry Shortcakes
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a heavy baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the grated chocolate.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and vanilla extract.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the cream mixture and gently mix with a fork until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into an 8-inch square, ¾ to 1 inch thick.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Trim ¼ inch from each side of the dough.
- Cut the dough into 9 equal squares, leaving about 2 inches between each square.
- Brush each biscuit with a little of the remaining heavy cream and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are lightly cracked.
- While the biscuits bake, prepare the strawberries: In a medium bowl, gently toss the sliced strawberries with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Set aside.
- Prepare the whipped cream: In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- To assemble: Once the biscuits are cool enough to handle, slice each in half horizontally. Spread a layer of the macerated strawberries on the bottom half of each biscuit, top with a dollop of whipped cream, and cover with the top half of the biscuit.
