Strawberry Shortcakes

It’s officially summer and that means strawberries are in season. With fresh strawberries come numerous ideas for delicious desserts. One classic dessert recipe with fresh strawberries is strawberry shortcakes. Normally when I make these I just buy angel food cake but this time I decided to try making my own. I actually got this recipe off of the back of a bisquick box. With that said, it’s no surprise this recipe calls for original bisquick mix.  If you want to make your own strawberry shortcakes give this a try. Enjoy.
