I need to make a shortcake tongiht, but don't have a recipe. Does anyone have one they use and love? I checked ou the recipe section and all I found was one that is steamed and it was only rated with 2 stars, sounds too different for me. I was hoping to find a nice traditional shortcake recipe to layer with a strawberry filling and ice with whipped cream.
This pound cake recipe is awesome:

I made a cake with it and filled with fresh fruit and it was YUMMY!
This is a recipe I love.
When they come out of the oven, I put a good quality white chocolate candy melt on the top of each shortcake and spread it around as it melts.

Yeah, I usually don't bake cakes from a mix, but looking at all the gourmet recipes for shortcake--they seemed pretty involved for such a simple thing.

It was YUMMMMY
The recipe made with the mix sounds like what I am looking for, but I don't have any Krusteaz, do you think bisquick would work?
I bet bisquick would work. I'm pretty sure bisquick has a shortcake recipe too. Maybe you can find that online then compare the 2 recipes.
I have been meaning to make some shortcakes for about a week now. I have strawberries in the fridge and 2 quarts of cream that will be outdated before my next cake is due. But I know I will make 2 batches and then snack mercilessly on them.
Oh heavens, Bisquick has about 15 different shortcake recipes-- check it out
