I can’t remember a time when I didn’t love strawberry shortcake. Once summertime rolls around I can barely suppress the urge to buy strawberries every time I hit the market. There’s so many ways to make shortcake and it’s such a quick and easy dessert that you can throw it together in no time at all. You can buy pound cake (Sara Lee is my favorite brand) or angel-food cake cups but personally I love to make the cake myself. I know… newsflash huh? Last Christmas my mother came to visit and I whipped up a quick cake recipe, baked it in individual molds, topped them with defrosted sliced strawberries and freshly whipped cream and she proclaimed it to be the best dessert I’d ever made for her! But now that it’s strawberry season there’s no need to use frozen berries… and the result is even better :)
