Strawberry Shortbread Stacks
Create a delicious dessert from these simple homemade biscuits
165g plain flour
45g caster sugar
110g butter (softened)
30g chocolate chips
200g chopped strawberries
150ml cream
20g icing sugar (sifted)
Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas 4
Line two baking trays with some greaseproof paper
In a bowl, add in the flour, caster sugar and butter, and using your fingertips rub until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs, next add in your chocolate chips
Gather the mixture together and knead lightly
Roll out the dough using a rolling pin, on to a floured surface, to a thickness of about 5mm
Next use a circle cutter/glass to press out round shapes, re-rolling the leftover shortbread to make 12 biscuits
Place the biscuits on your lined baking trays
Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden, then remove from the oven and allow cool
Whip the cream and icing sugar to soft peaks using a mixer
To assemble, place a biscuit on a plate and spoon some cream onto the biscuit
Add some strawberries, then spoon another bit of cream on top, then top with another biscuit
Finally top the second biscuit with some more cream and some chopped strawberries
