Strawberry Shortcake Shooter Ingredients
Method
Directions for Assembling Strawberry Shortcake Shooters
- 1
Prepare the Strawberries
Wash and slice the fresh strawberries. Place them in a mixing bowl and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Toss gently to coat and let them sit for about 10 minutes to release their juices.

Prepare the Cake
If using store-bought vanilla cake, cut it into small cubes. If making homemade, bake and cool the vanilla cake before cutting into cubes.
- 3
Whip the Cream (if not using pre-made)
In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Add vanilla extract and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.

Assemble the Shooters
In clear shot glasses or small cups, layer the ingredients starting with a layer of vanilla cake cubes at the bottom, followed by a layer of strawberries (with some juice), and then a layer of whipped cream. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with whipped cream on top.

Garnish and Serve
