STRAWBERRY BANANA SHORTCAKE



Strawberry Banana Shortcake image

I cannot tell a lie at all. Strawberries and bananas are two of my favorite fruits. I just love 'em. Nothing better. This rich shortcake came from a local restaurant and the recipe was given on our local midday show. I was THRILLED to DEATH! It's so decadent...give it a try when the strawberries are fresh and be sure to make some extra sliced strawberries and bananas to top the cake slices.
