Rated 5 out of 5 by misslucky_2626 from This is a super easy recipe. This is a super easy recipe. My family loved it. Made it last night with peaches. The shortcakes are the best thing I ever ate even by themselves. It was so good, they requested it again tonight. So we're having it with strawberries. If you have not tried it is a MUST. Thanks Kraft. I cook from your magazines I get in the meal at 3 times a week. I sprinkled cinnamon on top of the shortcakes with the sugar and it made all the difference. Again thank you again for this wonderful recipe.
