As biscuits cook, prep the strawberries.

Top each biscuit with strawberry mixture and serve with a generous helping of whipped topping.

Notes

*Note- As the biscuits cook, moisture is eliminated. So if you listen carefully you'll hear little bubbles. Once the bubbles become less frequent, the biscuits should be nice and cooked through.

We use this 3 in 1 deep dish cast iron skillet from Amazon. However, they have recently changed from a round design to a rectangular one.
