Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Biscuit Base

Start by preheating your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). In a large mixing bowl, combine the *all-purpose flour*, *granulated sugar*, and *baking powder*. Mix thoroughly to ensure all dry ingredients are well blended.

In another bowl, whisk together the *softened butter*, *eggs*, *milk*, and *vanilla extract* until well combined. Gradually add this mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until you achieve a smooth batter. Be careful not to overmix.

Pour the batter into a greased cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for about *25-30 minutes*, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once baked, let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 2

Make the Filling and Frosting

While the biscuit base is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the *heavy cream* until it starts to thicken. Gradually add in the *powdered sugar* and *vanilla extract*, continuing to beat until soft peaks form.

Next, if you're using berries, wash and dry them carefully. You can slice them if they are large, to ensure even distribution within the cake.

Step 3

Assemble the Cake

Once the biscuit base has cooled completely, slice it in half horizontally to create two layers. Spread a generous layer of the whipped cream frosting over the first layer. Top it with the *assorted berries*, spreading them evenly over the cream.

Place the second layer of biscuit on top and gently press down. Finally, spread the remaining whipped cream frosting on top and garnish with more *berries* for a delightful presentation.

Refrigerate the cake for at least *30 minutes* before serving. Enjoy your delicious biscuit cake with friends and family!

Variations

Want to cater to different dietary needs? No problem! 🌱 Check out these delicious variations that are both gluten-free and vegan!

For a **gluten-free version**, simply replace regular flour with a gluten-free all-purpose blend. Make sure it contains xanthan gum for the perfect texture. You won't notice the difference!

If you're interested in making **vegan pastries**, swap out the eggs with flaxseed meal mixed with water (1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal to 3 tablespoons of water). Use coconut oil or vegan butter in place of regular butter. These changes ensure everyone can enjoy these delightful treats without sacrificing taste! 🌟

Faq

  • What can I do if my pastry dough is too sticky?

    If your dough is too sticky, try adding a bit of flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches the right consistency. Be careful not to add too much, or your pastries may become tough!

  • Can I make the pastry dough ahead of time?

    Absolutely! You can prepare the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. Just make sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap to keep it fresh.

  • How do I know when my pastries are baked perfectly?

    Keep an eye on them towards the end of the baking time! They should be golden brown and puffed up. A gentle tap on the bottom should sound hollow.

  • Is it possible to freeze baked pastries?

    Yes! You can freeze them after baking. Let them cool completely, then place them in an airtight container or freezer bag. They can be frozen for up to three months!

  • How can I prevent my pastries from deflating after baking?

    Make sure your oven is fully preheated and avoid opening the oven door too soon. Also, remember to handle the dough gently when shaping it before baking.

  • Can I use different fillings for my pastries?

    Definitely! Get creative! From fruit jams to chocolate to cream cheese, the options are endless. Just make sure not to overfill them to prevent leaking.
