Instructions

For the strawberry shortcake

Preheat oven to 400^oF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium bowl, gently mix the sliced strawberries with ¼ cup sugar and set aside.
In another medium bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbles.
Add the milk and stir until just combined and dough forms a ball. Spoon the dough onto the baking sheet into 5 pieces. Shape each piece into a circle.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the top is golden. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.
Carefully slice each shortcake in half, spoon sliced strawberries on bottom half and top with a generous spoonful of whipped topping. Top with the remaining biscuit half.
