Homemade Strawberry Shortcake with Grand Marnier Whipped Cream

A classic yet extraordinary Homemade Strawberry Shortcake recipe with Grand Marnier Whipped Cream.

Strawberry Shortcake with Grand Marinier Whipped Cream

If my mom would have had Instagram when I was a kid, I’m pretty sure that 90% of the photos she would have taken during the early summer months would have included me with red stained fingers, clothes and lips from all the strawberry snacking I would do. My grandpa’s strawberry patch always produced the most beautiful, juicy red strawberries… you know the berries you would swear had sugar on them straight from the garden, they were so sweet?

Berries Be Happy

While my cousins would be off trying to catch the fish out of my Grandpa’s pond, I would be sneaking off for “just one more strawberry”. This would cause my Grandpa to exclaim “Well, I sure could have sworn I had a good bunch of strawberries for you to pick today. I wonder where they all went? Darn rabbits!” With a side eye glance and a wink towards my juice stained face, he never once got after me for eating all the strawberries.

Things haven’t changed much over the years. I still can’t resist strawberries fresh from the field. I’ve grown a few of my own strawberry snatchers too… we just can’t help ourselves!

Homemade Strawberry Shortcake with Grand Mariner Whipped Cream on dineanddish.netNothing beats strawberries fresh from the fields, but one thing comes close…homemade strawberry shortcake. This recipe is a classic strawberry shortcake biscuit recipe, with a few special touches to make it extraordinary. I just know you’ll love this homemade strawberry shortcake as much as we do! Enjoy!

    Ooh yes please. Strawberries warmed by the sun are absolutely unbeatable! Love this recipe – I’d have to leave out the orange liqueur , as allergic to oranges – but I’m thinking, vanilla whipped cream? Thanks for beautiful pics and a delicious recipe. Sammie x http://www.feastingisfun.com

    I have to confess – I used to hate strawberries as a kid. Until I went strawberry picking with my nanny that is – and I never looked back! It’s such an amazing thing to do.

    This recipe makes me smile, it’s such a reminder of summer and good times!

    I made this tonight as a special request for my 82 year old step-dad’s birthday. I usually make the better homes & gardens shortcake recipe. Never again! The orange zest, raw sugar and grand marnier in your recipe take it a step beyond the everyday and add no substantial extra work. Presentation was gorgeous and the taste was unbeatable. Thank you!!

Have you ever been creatively stuck?

December 2019 my absolute favorite camera lens fell out of the cabinet I keep it in and shattered in a million pieces. I cried for days and days. I barely picked up my DSLR in 2020 because I just felt so uninspired. I couldn’t get the shots I was visualizing in my head with the lenses I had. 
.
Nick and the kids replaced my favorite lens as a Christmas gift and I’m ecstatic to be shooting again! I joined my incredibly talented friend @kimklassen creative photography Inner Circle for extra inspiration this year. Assignment 1 out of the gate and I already feel eager and excited about photography again! (You can see my “tell a story through multiples” in my Instagram story.)
.
Three cheers for bursting with inspiration again, after all this time.

Last year I couldn’t believe I was old enough to have an 18 year old. This year I look in the mirror and see someone old enough to have a 19 year old. This past year has been a lot and man, it has physically aged me! But one things solid and firm...I love my kids and am so proud of them! The resilience Jacob has shown this past year has impressed me...”graduating” high school, starting college, all when things have been so up in the air and unsure. And never once complaining about it. My kids haven’t lost a thing this year...instead they’ve gained so much they wouldn’t have gained without this experience. I’m so proud to be their mom. Happy 19th birthday @jacobdoyle02 We are fiercely proud of you and love you so much!

This is the recipe my sister-in-law uses and it is the BEST tasting, no fail sugar cookie recipe. It’s from a really old issue of @tasteofhome magazine with a frosting recipe she wrote down in the margin. I could eat so many of these and never get tired of them! If you want the recipe let me know and I’ll dm you the picture! Is making decorated cut out cookies one of your Christmas traditions?

It’s a book giveaway! I often get people asking me for book recommendations. Talking books is one of my favorite things to do! So when @librofm gave me the opportunity to give away three audio copies of any audiobook I wanted to, I knew immediately which book I wanted to share.
.
@roblowe book, Stories I Only Tell My Friends is the audiobook I recommend to EVERYONE. It is a book I listened to years ago, not expecting to love it, but I absolutely did. First of all, Rob Lowe narrates...so there’s that lovely bonus. But Stories I Only Tell My Friends is a funny, raw, emotional, informative, peek inside of the life of a really fascinating celebrity.
.
I wasn’t a Rob Lowe super fan before. I haven’t watched West Wing (I know, I know), Brothers & Sisters, Parks & Rec, or any of his TV shows, but I have always been a HUGE Brat Pack fan. Well, after listening to this audiobook I am a big fan (and his other audiobook, Love Life, is great too).
.
Long story short, I have three codes through @librofm to give to 3 people. To enter, leave a comment on this post by midnight CST on 12/16 telling me what your favorite audiobook is and why! Also, definitely check out Libro.fm - the best audiobook platform that also gives back to local bookstores!

If S.A.D is something you worry about each year, but especially this year, let me introduce you to my seasonal affective disorder game changer, the @sunrisesensations light therapy lamp. I ordered one of these lamps last year at the recommendation of my friend @leslieradams and it is the best (& most stylish) light therapy lamp I’ve ever used. I absolutely love it and highly recommend it...it’s well worth the money.
.
@sunrisesensations has a new, smaller lamp called Bright Box. The size snd functionality is perfect for a nightstand or office desk. Let me know if you have any questions about how these lamps continue to help me fight those pesky winter blues! Check out Sunrise Sensations to find the right UV free light therapy box for you!

Alright, alright, alright! It’s time to talk about how we can support our local bookstore during the holidays and beyond! As you consider buying gifts this year, make sure you shop local for all the book people on your list! One unique and super easy way you can support your favorite local bookstores is with an audiobook subscription to @librofm Yes! Audiobooks! With Libro.fm you can financially support your local bookstore AND buy audiobooks all at the same time. Each audiobook purchase supports the independent book store of your choice! Do it for yourself and buy some audiobooks for friends too!
.

If you need audiobook ideas, hit me up. I’ve listened to so many great books this year that will make it on my top favorites list, including Greenlights by @officiallymcconaughey It’s narrated by the author and is so worth the listen! Your ears will thank you!
.
PS my favorite #localbookstore @rainydaybooks is under renovation which makes it even better that I can still safely support them from the comfort of my own home!
