ingredients
Shortcakes
Mixed Berry Sauce
Flavoured Whipped Cream
directions
Combine sifted flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add orange zest and poppy seeds.
Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Combine orange juice, milk, and cream. Add liquid gradually to dry ingredients. Mix until dough just comes together.
Roll dough out to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut into 2½-inch rounds.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place shortcakes onto baking sheet and freeze. If you wish to leave these in the freezer for a later date, wrap the cakes in 2 layers of plastic wrap and keep in freezer. Bake at 375 degrees F. for 20 to 30 minutes straight from the freezer.
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 5 minutes until cornstarch cooks out.
Whip cream with Grand Marnier. Spoon berry sauce over shortcakes and top with flavoured whipped cream.
