Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup cold butter, cubed
⅔ cup heavy cream
1 large egg, beaten
3 cups sliced fresh strawberries
3 tablespoons white sugar

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Mix together flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and cream of tartar in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives. Stir in cream and egg until incorporated. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface.
Knead dough for 2 minutes. Press into a 1/2-inch-thick sheet. Cut into squares and place on baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 20 minutes. Allow shortcakes to cool.
Place strawberries in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with sugar; stir to combine. Split cooled shortcakes in half and spread with sugared berries.
