Back to Recipe List * Exported from MasterCook * Strawberry Shortcakes with Mascarpone Cream Recipe By : Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Volume 12-01 Jan 2009 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 3/8 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons sugar 1 1/2 tablespoons poppy seeds -- optional 3 tablespoons butter -- cold 3/4 cup half and half 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract 3/8 teaspoon almond extract **Mascarpone Cream Filling** 12 ounces mascarpone cheese -- cold 1/4 cup light cream -- (half & half) 4 tablespoons powdered sugar -- or to taste In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and poppy seeds. Add butter and rub in to flour mixture, creating coarse crumbs. In a small measuring cup, combine cream, vanilla extract and almond extract. Add to flour mixture and stir with a fork until a ball of dough forms. Add an additional tablespoon of milk, if necessary. Divide dough into six and place on a baking sheet. It is not crucial to shape the dough but it's better if your shortcakes are on the round side, for presentation. Bake at 400F for 15-18 minutes, until lightly golden and somewhat firm to the touch. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack. Mascarpone Cream Filling Beat all the filling ingredients together with a whisk until soft peaks form. If you want to make the filling sweeter, then add a bit more sugar. You might have to add a little more cream to keep the filling from getting too stiff. My notes. I placed the shortcakes on parchment paper because I wondered if the shortcakes because they contain sugar would stick to the ungreased baking sheet. Also, dividing the dough in six makes very large biscuits. I would suggest dividing the dough in eight. I sliced fresh strawberries and added sugar and fresh blueberries earlier in the day. I like to add either a splash of balsamic vinegar or a bit of triple sec to the strawberries.
