Oh hey, it’s a recipe post! It’s been a little while since we’ve had one of these. I’ve been MIA the last couple of weeks finishing up a big life-consuming project (more on that very soon), but I am now officially done and happy to be back, catching up with you lovely readers and making yummy food. I’ve missed you guys! How are you? What going on in your life? Is it sweltering where you are? Are you so ready for it to not be summer any longer? I’m great. My indoor cat ate an inexplicably indoor lizard last week (it was traumatizing). It’s very hot here. And I wish fall were now. But if it must be summer, we may as well do what we can to enjoy it, so today I’m sharing my Strawberry Shortcake Sundaes for Two!
I’ve been making these strawberry shortcake sundaes for years, and usually I make them for a crowd, but I’ve really been enjoying posting small-batch desserts lately, so I shrunk this recipe down to serve two. And if you want, you can easily double or triple the recipe (see the recipe notes for doubling instructions). I’m a firm believer that the best sundaes are more than just ice cream and toppings. They need to be served over something. Earlier this summer, I posted my Caramel Apple Pie Sundaes which are served in a pie crust cup. These are served over cubed shortcake and they are amaaaaaazing. Since this is a recipe for two, we make just one cute and tasty buttermilk shortcake. It’s slightly sweet, and once cut up, serves as a perfect base for the rest of our sundae. Next up is a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Buy your favorite or make your own. It’s up to you. Then top it off with a fabulous (and easy) strawberry ice cream topping and a big dollop of whipped cream. It makes for a fun, easy, and rather beautiful (if I do say so myself) strawberry shortcake sundae that will help you beat the heat in these dying days of summer.
