Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. Add cream cheese and grated butter. Mix with a pastry blender, fork, or mixer. Once most of it is incorporated, pour in whole milk or buttermilk.

Dust countertop or a large cutting board with flour. Roll biscuit dough until 1/2 inch thick. Cut out rounds using a sharp 3-inch round cutter. Place the biscuits on Silpat-lined or parchment lined baking sheet.

Sprinkle biscuits with sparkling sugar or granulated sugar.

Bake for 10 - 14 minutes or until a light golden color. Set aside.

Place sliced strawberries in a small bowl and stir in sugar. Place in refrigerator until ready to use.

To make whipped cream: beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Stir in powdered sugar and beat just until combined.

To assemble strawberry shortcake: split open the biscuits. Top bottom half with sugared strawberries. Top with whipped cream and top of the biscuit. May make double-layer biscuits. Spoon strawberry juices over strawberry shortcake and serve.
