I was recently gifted a recipe box from Grandma George and it was full of recipe treasures. Some classics and some I have never seen before. This recipe was from Alice Daniels and let me tell you, it's delicious. It's everything you love about Strawberry Shortcake but all in one. You get this sticky, crunchy crust that you can't explain why you love it, but you love. The cake itself is so full yet light, and the sweetness of the strawberry runs throughout. I've never had anything like it, yet it tastes so familiar! I hope you enjoy it.
