5/19/2010 09:28:52 PM Report AbuseI loved this recipe, I made it with strawberries, sugar, and strawberry pie filling. I mixed the strawberries and sugar, let it sit for 45 min used that to fill the shortcakes. Then I used a regular vanilla cream cheese frosting to fill it, and drizzled it with the strawberry pie filling. It was great!
