Makes one 10” cobbler

Strawberries

2 lbs hulled & sliced into bigger pieces (about 4 cups)

½ cup sugar (reduce sugar if the strawberries are super ripe/sweet)

Shortcakes

1 ¼ cups flour

¼  cup sugar

¼ cup light brown sugar

1 ½  teaspoons baking powder

1 ½  teaspoons salt

8 tablespoons butter, cubed

1 egg

¼ cup heavy cream + more to brush tops

In a food processor, pulse dry ingredients together until well incorporated. Add in, butter and pulse until butter disappears and you see an evenly sized, sandy mixture. Pulse in egg and heavy cream just until dough comes together. Scoop big or small mounds over the entire surface of strawberries, then brush or massage the top of the dough mounds with a little extra heavy cream. Bake at 350F for 25-35 minutes or until strawberries start to bubble up and the shortcake tops begin to caramelize. Cool before drizzling frosted glaze atop and serving.
