What you need:

• Strawberries

• Sugar

• Bisquick mix

• Butter

• Milk

• Heavy Whipping Cream

• Vanilla

How to make it:

Start by slicing the strawberries and toss them in the sugar and vanilla. The strawberries will marinate and create the most amazing sweet strawberry syrup. Make sure you spoon some over your biscuits! Then you can make the drop biscuits and bake those. While the biscuits are baking, whip up the homemade whipped cream. Homemade whipped cream is so much better than store bought!! Then you can assemble!

How to store

You can wrap any leftover biscuits in tin foil or plastic wrap. Store leftover whipped cream and strawberries in air tight containers in the fridge for up to the next 1-2 days.
