GRANDMA'S STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE
Here's a family-sized version of my grandma's summertime dessert. I can still taste the sweet juicy berries she piled over warm biscuits and topped with a huge dollop of fresh whipped cream. My father added even more indulgence to his serving by first buttering his biscuits. -Shirley Joan Helfenbein, Lapeer, Michigan
