Ingredients
- 2 C. flour (sifted, all purpose)
- 2 Tbs. sugar
- 3 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 C. butter
- 1 egg, beaten
- 2/3 C. light cream
- 3-4 C. sugared sliced strawberries
- 1C. whipping cream (whipped)
Directions
Stir together dry ingredients and cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg and cream; add to dry mixture all at once, stirring just enough to moisten. Spread dough in a greased 8x1 1/2-inch round baking pan, building up edges slightly. Bake at 450 degrees for 15-18 minutes. Remove from pan; cool on rack for 5 minutes. Split into 2 layers and lift to off carefully. Butter bottom layer. Spoon berries and cream between layers and over top. Serve warm.
