Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease the sheet.
In a large mixing bowl, combine Bisquick baking mix, sugar, and butter. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend the butter into the dry ingredients until crumbly.
Add milk to the mixture and stir just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming 6 equal-sized mounds. Slightly flatten the tops if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the shortcakes are golden brown.
While the shortcakes are baking, prepare the strawberries (or chosen fruit). Slice the strawberries and toss with 2 tablespoons of sugar if a sweeter topping is desired. Set aside to macerate for about 10 minutes.
Once the shortcakes are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
To assemble, split the warm shortcakes in half horizontally. Layer the bottom halves with strawberries and a generous dollop of whipped cream, then top with the other halves.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Bisquick shortcake!
