Strawberry shortcake with cream biscuits
Cakes
Darn those farmers' market strawberry vendors. It would have been perfectly reasonable to pick up a pint of ripe local berries, but of course, they had to be running a special: 3 pints for $5. Can't pass up the opportunity to save a whole dollar (and to be honest, now that I say it like that it seems ridiculous, but it felt like we were saving more at the time. Mind games I tell you... mind games.) So here we are with three pints of perfectly ripe strawberries and only two people to eat them. Oh whatever shall we do? Strawberry shortcake seemed like an obvious choice. Taylor agreed, though is conception of strawberry shortcake involved some store-bought pound cake. I had to convince him that no, real shortcake is not made with poundcake, but rather a cream-biscuit that you could describe as a cross between a biscuit and a scone. I could tell he was skeptical of the whole thing, but I think the final product won him over. The biscuits were barely sweet and crumbly, a perfect vehicle
