Instructions

1 In a deep skillet, pot, or fryer, add the 4 cups of oil and start heating on
slightly above medium heat. The oil should be 350 degrees.
2 Wash and slice the strawberries. Make the homemade whipped cream if you are not
using Cool Whip. Prepare the cinnamon and sugar mixture by stirring the two
together in a bowl.
3 Once the oil is at 350 degrees, put 2 to 3 biscuits in the oil. Let them fry for
about 2 minutes and then turn. Let them fry for another 2 minutes. If they are
really light in color, let them cook on each side for another 30 seconds to 1
minute. You are looking for a dark brown but not burnt. Remove from oil, being
very careful to not get burnt slice the biscuits in half. If they are still
doughy, put the slices back in the fryer for about 20 more seconds to cook the
middle. Once done, coat in the cinnamon/sugar mixture.
4 Continue to cook the remaining biscuits and coat them in cinnamon and sugar.
5 Assemble the shortcakes by putting one fried biscuit half on a plate, layer with
strawberry slices, put about 1/4 whipped cream on the strawberries, and then top
with another fried biscuit half.
