STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE BITES



Strawberry Shortcake Bites image

This dessert wraps all the flavors of a traditional strawberry shortcake into one bite-size treat. Fresh strawberries, shortbread cookie crumbles and whipped cream come together in these delectable morsels.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 16 bites

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup sugar
18 strawberries, 2 stemmed and sliced, 16 left whole with stems
1/2 cup heavy cream
16 shortbread cookies, such as Lorna Doone (about 4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Combine the sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a rolling boil over medium heat. Add the sliced strawberries and continue to cook until the syrup thickens slightly and forms small foamy bubbles, about 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • Whisk the heavy cream in a medium mixing bowl until it forms soft peaks. Add 1 tablespoon of the strawberry syrup and whisk to firm peaks. Remove the sliced strawberries from the syrup and discard or save for another use.
  • Process the shortbread cookies in a blender or food processor or crush by hand to make fine crumbs. Transfer the crumbs to a plate.
  • Holding one of the strawberries by the stem, dip it into the syrup, let the excess drain off and then dip it into the cookie crumbs. You may need to pat on the crumbs a bit to make sure they adhere to the strawberry. Place the strawberry on a plate. Repeat with the remaining strawberries.
  • Spoon the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a small star tip. Pipe a small rosette of whipped cream in the middle of each strawberry. Serve within an hour.

Fresh strawberries sit atop a buttery shortbread crust for a tasty springtime (or anytime) dessert! These bars taste great even after being refrigerated--and are maybe even better the next day!

Provided by Kim

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Strawberry Dessert Recipes

Time 1h35m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup unsalted butter, softened
⅓ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
3 ½ cups sliced fresh strawberries
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons strawberry jam

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line an 8x8-inch pan with enough parchment paper to have an overhang on all sides.
  • Beat butter and sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat until thoroughly combined. Mix in flour, salt, and baking soda until just combined. Using floured hands, press dough evenly into the prepared pan.
  • Bake until edges of the crust just begin to brown, 12 to 16 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Place sliced strawberries into a large bowl. Add sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss to combine. Pour strawberries evenly over the crust. Place pan back into the oven and bake until strawberries have softened, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool to room temperature in the pan.
  • Place strawberry jam in a small microwave-safe bowl and heat in the microwave for 15 seconds, or until slightly runny. Brush melted jam over the top of strawberries, and allow the bars to finish cooling completely in the pan. Carefully lift bars out of the pan using the parchment edges, and cut into 9 bars. Store in the refrigerator.

  • Be sure to chill the shortbread dough before baking. This will help it hold its shape better.
  • If you don't have time to chill the dough, you can bake it right away. Just be sure to keep an eye on it so that it doesn't overcook.
  • Once the shortbread is baked, let it cool completely before assembling the dessert.
  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Whip the cream until it forms stiff peaks before folding it into the strawberry mixture.
  • Serve the dessert immediately or chill it for later.
