  4. Now mix in the melted butter and vegetable shortening.

  7. Place the ramekins in the microwave and heat them for 3 1/2 minutes on high.

  8. When the shortcakes are done, set them aside to cool for a minute or two and then dump them out of the ramekins onto a plate. Let them continue cooling while you prepare the cream topping

  9. To make the cream topping, place softened cream cheese, heavy cream, sour cream and stevia in a mixing bowl and mix with an electric mixer until everything is well combined and the mixture is smooth.

  10. Place each shortcake on a dessert plate, spoon on the cream topping and top with strawberry mixture
