老式美式酥饼蛋糕

This is the shortcake your grandmother would recognize: a lightly sweetened, biscuit-style cake with a crisp, sugar-crusted top and a soft, buttery crumb that drinks up strawberry juices without falling apart. Grating cold butter into the flour and handling the dough as little as possible keeps the layers flaky, while an egg in the dough gives it just enough richness and structure to split cleanly for filling.
