- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled

Directions
Preparing the Biscuits:
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a quarter sheet baking pan with parchment paper.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
- Blend in the butter: Cut the chilled butter into small pieces and blend it into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture becomes crumbly.
- Form the dough: Gradually add the buttermilk, kneading slightly until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a bit more buttermilk.
- Shape the biscuits: On a floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times, then pat it out to 1″ thickness. Cut out 3-4 biscuits using a floured 3″ biscuit cutter.
- Bake: Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 9-10 minutes until lightly golden.
Preparing the Strawberry Filling:
- Mix the strawberries: In a bowl, combine the chopped fresh strawberries with granulated sugar, a pinch of salt, and fresh lemon juice. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
Preparing the Whipped Cream:
- Beat the cream: In a clean, cold bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form.
- Add sugar and vanilla: Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream and continue to beat until the mixture is fluffy.
Assembling the Strawberry Biscuits:
- Slice the biscuits: Once the biscuits are slightly cooled, slice them in half.
- Add the filling: Top each half with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a spoonful of the strawberry mixture.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve immediately for the best taste experience.
