An updated version of the traditional summertime favorite. You may also serve this with plain strawberries.
Arrange rack in upper middle of oven. Preheat oven to
425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place all of the fruit in a large bowl with the lemon juice
and ½ cup sugar. Stir gently to combine and allow to
macerate at least 30 minutes before serving. May be
done ahead and refrigerated – remove from refrigerator
30 minutes before serving.
Sprinkle the gelatin over the water or liqueur and let
soften for 5 minutes. Place in a pan of simmering water
and heat until completely liquefi ed; let cool. Place heavy
cream, sugar and liquefi ed gelatin mixture in the
Cuisinart
™
mixing bowl. Insert the chef’s whisk. Turn to
speed 6 and mix until slightly thickened, about 30
seconds. Increase to speed 10 and beat until soft peaks
form, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a separate bowl,
cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Place the fl our, almond meal,
1
⁄
3
cup granulated sugar,
baking powder, and salt in the Cuisinart
™
mixing bowl.
Insert the fl at mixing paddle. Turn to speed 2 and mix
for 30 seconds to combine and aerate. Add butter. Mix
on speed 3 for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mixture resem-
bles coarse crumbs, but some of the butter is still visible
in the size of small peas. Add sour cream, milk and
almond extract; mix on speed 1 until combined – dough
will be sticky. Turn out onto a fl oured surface and turn to
coat with fl our. With fl oured hands, knead (fl atten, turn,
fold) 6 times. Roll out to a ½-inch thickness and cut into
rounds using a 2-inch round or square biscuit cutter
dipped in fl our. Arrange shortcakes evenly spaced on
the prepared baking sheet. Brush with the beaten egg
whites and sprinkle with the sugar. Bake shortcakes in
preheated 425°F oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until puffed,
golden, and tops are slightly crackled. Remove from
oven and place on a wire rack to cool slightly.
To serve, slice warm shortcakes horizontally and place
the bottoms on dessert plates or soup plates. Top each
with the macerated fruit and some of the accumulated
juices, then a dollop of whipped cream, and the top of
the shortcake. Serve immediately.
