    List of Ingredients

    Biscuits:
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/3 cup sugar
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup cold butter
    1/4 cup shortening
    2/3 cup whipping cream
    1/2 cup miniature semi-sweet real chocolate chips

    Whipped Cream:
    1 1/3 cups cups chilled whipping cream
    3 tablespoons powdered sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla

    Fruit:
    1 pint strawberries, hulled, sliced
    2 tablespoons sugar
    2 bananas, peeled, sliced

    Recipe

    Heat oven to 400°F. Combine flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in 2/3 cup whipping cream with fork just until moistened. Stir in chocolate chips.

    Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth (1 minute). Roll out dough to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut out 8 biscuits with 2 1/2-inch scalloped round cutter. Place 1 inch apart onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 14 minutes or until lightly browned.

    Meanwhile, beat 1 1/3 cups chilled whipping cream in chilled small mixer bowl at high speed, scraping bowl often, until soft peaks form. Continue beating, gradually adding powdered sugar and vanilla, until stiff peaks form (1 to 2 minutes).

    Place sliced strawberries in medium bowl; toss with 2 tablespoons sugar. To serve, split biscuits; place on individual dessert plates. Spoon whipped cream on bottom half of biscuits; place banana slices on whipped cream. Top with remaining half of biscuits; spoon strawberries over biscuits.
