Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
2. Add the chopped strawberries to a bowl with 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Set aside to let the strawberry juices release.
3. Combine the Bisquick, the remaining sugar, milk, and vanilla in a bowl. Mix well until combined; the mixture will be sticky. Drop the batter onto a baking sheet to make 6 discs, using about 1/4 cup for each shortcake.
4. Place in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the shortcakes are golden brown on the top. When the shortcakes are cool, slice them in half.
5. Fill the middle with whipped cream and strawberries and put the top half on top of the filling.
6. Finish the shortcakes off with the remaining whipped cream and strawberries, dividing the whipped cream and strawberries evenly between all of the shortcakes.
