Strawberry Shortcake Crumble with Cream Cheese Frosting
Summer is coming to a close soon, so we’re out gathering the good stuff and creating a whole lotta’ deliciousness!
Recently, I picked up strawberries from our local farmer’s market, so I decided to recreate a childhood favorite with a little bit of help from our friends from Pillsbury.
Let me say: Pillsbury™ Filled Pastry Bag with a built-in star tip takes the whole strawberry shortcake game to the next level.
I used the Cream Cheese Frosting, and it worked like a charm. Can you say flawless?
Whether you are putting the finishing touches on cupcakes, cakes, or any other delicious dessert delicacy, the new Pillsbury Filled Pastry Bag is the right choice.
My redux of my mama’s strawberry shortcake recipe deviates slightly but is just as good. Don’t worry; I have the homemade shortcake biscuits and the fresh strawberries drenched in lots of strawberry syrup. However, I replaced the whipped cream with Pillsbury Pastry Bag Cream Cheese Frosting, and it’s just as good. And not only is it delicious, but it is a huge time-saver!
Great childhood memories involve good food, and I’m picking up the mantle to do the same for my family.
Look below for our super easy and incredibly delicious Strawberry Shortcake Crumble + Cream Cheese Frosting.
Strawberry Shortcake Crumble + Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe
Ingredients:
- 5 cups strawberries, washed and quartered
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/3 cups biscuit mix
- 2 1/2 tbsp unsalted melted butter

- Bake on the center rack of a preheated 350-degree oven for 12-15 minutes until the tops are golden brown. Remove biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool.

- Place 3 cups of strawberries into a large bowl and cover with 1/3 cup of granulated sugar.
- Mash 2 cups of strawberries with a potato masher to release the juices, then add to the quartered strawberries and sugar mixer and mix well.

- Serve.
How to use the Pillsbury Filled Pastry Bags:
- After opening the package, push the frosting towards the star tip and twist the top of the pastry bag.
- Remove the plastic cover from the star tip by tearing at the perforation.
- Now it’s time to get fancy~ squeezing from the top of the pastry bag, frost your cupcake, cookie, parfait, or other treats!
To have a delicious frosting already made, AND, with the built-in star tip, I can pull off all types of creations.
I mean, you can make stars, waves, rosettes and more. The sky is the limit on this one!
People will probably think I worked hard to get the perfect swirl.
Nope, this will be my secret baking hack this holiday season; how about you?
