Strawberry Shortcake - 2nd Attempt

I will be on leave today, I have some more ingredients in the fridge so I thought "Why Not?"  So I went to the supermarket n got iciing sugar which I missed out the 1st time.

I remember to sift the flour & baking powder and immediately can feel the difference when I mix the butter with it.  This time I remember to add a teeny weeny bit more caster sugar n roll the dough slightly thicker.

Little DinoEgg was sleeping when I started out, he was unhappy that he did not get to participate.  I promise him that he can put the strawberries onto the shortcakes.

Look at how well the dough has risen
Even the shortcake looks promising
Iciing on the top
Shortcakes looks "fluffier"
The can of instant whip cream gave up on me... I only managed to make 5 Strawberry Shortcakes n keep the remaining shortcakes in an air tight container till later.  I gave 2 shortcakes to Little DinoEgg as breakfast, and keep 3 for daddy.  I took a small bite from Little DinoEgg's share, its sweet this time but not too sweet, the shortcake is soft, no more hard outer layer.  Success I should say!

These are for daddy!
