Directions:In a large bowl, combine flour, 2 tbsp sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in milk until a soft dough forms.
Drop the dough by heaping teaspoonfuls into 8 mounds on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 425º for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
Meanwhile, place strawberries, orange juice, and remaining sugar in a bowl; toss gently. Split shortcakes in half horizontally. Place bottom halves on a serving plate. Top with generous scoop of ice cream. Ladle strawberries over ice cream and add whipped cream. Replace shortcake top. |

Notes: So, why is this "Texas" shortcake?? Because, three things in it are a Texas trademark. First, size; everything is bigger and better in Texas. Two, because if it's served in Texas it's either served on a biscuit or a tortilla. And three, the pride of Brennan Texas: Blue Bell Ice Cream.
These shortcake biscuits make the best foundation for a shortcake. Leave those shortcake cupcakes sitting right there in the produce department and go get your baking sheet out. Your family is going to love you.
