For the flakiest shortcakes, ensure your butter and buttermilk are very cold. Don't overmix the dough; a few streaks of flour are fine. Feel free to substitute other berries, such as blueberries or raspberries, for the strawberries. A touch of vanilla extract can be added to the whipped cream for extra flavor.
