YUMMY!!My husband said this is the grown-up version of Strawberry Shortcake...try it, you won't regret it! Cook time is actually chill time. We are lucky enough to have wonderful fresh berries available to us about 3 months out of the year, so i've become a "berry snob" and won't use frozen, but I am sure that they would be just as good.
