Strawberry shortcake was a popular summer dessert in our house because my mom likes to pick strawberries (mid-late June where we live). You can make it with cake or with biscuits. My family is on Team Biscuit. (Though I won't turn away a cake-based one. :)) I used to eat it without the strawberries. I still remember the giant biscuits my mom made in a 9" round pan when I was little, but after I was a bit older she started making drop biscuits. One of the first things I learned to bake were strawberry shortcake biscuits with Bisquick mix. I have been hunting for a good recipe that doesn't use that but is still quick and easy.
Verdict: This is still not QUITE what I am after but it is quite good for the amount of time and effort I'm willing to put in. These are best the day they're made, or the next day after.
