Butter Shortcake

Submitted by Bonnie G #2

"This recipe came with a shortcake basket pan I purchased and we love it. The cake is not to sweet and firm enough to hold the fruit and whipped cream topping without becoming soggy. So much better than those little round discs you buy at the store. I topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, fresh strawberries, bananna and pineapple and a healthy serving of whipped crea. YUM"
