Strawberry Shortcakes with Real Whipped Cream in under 5 minutes!

Summertime is here, and strawberries are in season. This is a super fast dessert to make.



I saw a few local vendors selling these strawberries on the side of the road, and had to stop! :)

What you need:
1-2 Strawberries per cake
1 strawberry shortcake/sponge cake (You will often find these right next to the strawberries in the grocery store.)
~2 tablespoons of whipped cream per cake

Step 1. Make your whipped cream. You can use the canned stuff, but why would you?! Fill the shortcake with approximately 2 tablespoons of whipped cream.

Step 2. Cut 1-2 strawberries (depending on their size) longways. Add to the cake.

Step 3. Decorate the cake any way you like. For example, a delicious chocolate truffle in the center will make this a decadent dessert.



I sprinkled a little cinnamon on one cake, and place a mint leaf on the other. Be as creative as you'd like.



**Tip** If you are making these for guests, don't forget to stick them into the fridge until you are ready to serve them.
