This treat is a hybrid between a strawberry shortcake and individual cobbler. To make it, you’ll pair buttery drop biscuits with honey-laced berries and top it with ice cream instead of whipped cream.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
- 2 quarts fresh strawberries, hulled
- 1/3 cup honey
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving
Instructions
- Make the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 375 ̊ F. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon in a large bowl. Add the butter and rub the mixture together with your fingertips until it looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Stir in the buttermilk with a wooden spoon to form a rough dough.
- Scoop 6 mounds of dough about 1 inch apart onto a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes; transfer the pan to a rack and let cool 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the strawberries: Combine the strawberries and honey in a saucepan over medium heat. Partially cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries are just softened, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Divide the strawberries among bowls, reserving some of the juices. Top each serving with a warm biscuit and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with the reserved strawberry juices.

I hosted a dinner party and everyone enjoyed this dessert recipe. It was easy to make the biscuits ahead of time.
