- Lightly flour a work surface. The dough will be reasonably sticky. Dump dough onto floured work surface and knead briefly and gently to make sure which dough is consistent. You are patting more than kneading, actually, Pat the dough out into a rectangle and gently fold over the sides into the middle. Repeat.

- To assemble::Well... it's up to you, actually. One way to do it is to place the bottom half of each hot shortcake on a dessert plate, spoon a generous dollop of whipped cream onto the bottom half. Tumble 1/2 c. of sliced strawberries over the whipped cream. Top with a little more whipped cream and the top half of the shortcake. Then add in one final spoonful of whipped cream and a few strawberries to top.
