Let’s make it.

Heat oven to 200°C / 390°F. Rub butter into flour and baking powder, then stir in half the sugar and milk.
Pat dough to 2 cm thick, cut four rounds and bake on a lined tray 15–18 minutes. Cool.
Slice strawberries and toss with remaining sugar. Whip cream until soft peaks form.
Split cooled biscuits and fill with cream and berries just before serving. Refrigerate leftover cream promptly.
