Grandma's Shortcake Recipe

Simple ~ Delicious ~ Your Family Will Love It... and You!
It's that time of year again.  Time for fresh strawberries, warm weather, and summertime desserts.
Here is one of my summertime family favorites, my Grandma, Georganna Grant, (my Mom's mom) Shortcake recipe.
Shortcake:
1 Cup Flour               2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
1/3 Cup Sugar           2 Tablespoons Shortening
*enough Milk to spread - approx. 1/3 Cup, maybe a little more.
Bake in and 8x8 pan at 425 degrees for about 10-15 minutes.

Note: I usually double this Shortcake recipe and bake it in a greased and floured, glass, 9x13 baking dish.


If you don't want to grease and flour a baking dish you could used a non-stick cooking spray.
Be sure to wash, cut up, and sprinkle your strawberries with sugar at least a few hours before hand so that they have time to chill in the refrigerator before serving over your Shortcake.
My Mom likes hers served with a little Milk poured on top too.
