Strawberry Shortcake Cake
"I made this cake a few years ago on a whim ... and what a delightful whim it turned out to be. It’s a spin on strawberry shortcake, but the cake is, well, cake -- not the biscuit-like disc in the classic strawberry shortcake recipe. I added cream cheese frosting instead of whipped cream, just for kicks, and it turned out to be just what the whole mess of deliciousness needed. Recipe from The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Food From My Frontier by Ree Drummond/William Morrow, 2012...."
