Special Strawberry Shortcake

Strawberry shortcake recipes date back to the 1840s in the US. Many variations include biscuits, spongecake, angel food cake, etc. This recipe is similar to a cornbread. If you'd like to sweeten it up sprinkle the strawberries with sugar and top with whip cream.

This recipe is special because it was handed down from my Great Grandmother, "Miss Grandma" from Goodland, Kansas.

Ingredients:
Strawberries
Whip cream
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup milk
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup sugar
2 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder


Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Mix dry ingredients. Mix wet ingredients. Combine the dry and wet mixtures. Grease a 9x13 glass baking dish with non-stick spray. Bake until golden-brown, about 30 minutes. Test for doneness with tooth pick.
