One thing most people love about strawberry shortcakes is that it's so moist. But if you are taking it to an outing or want to make it in advance it's almost impossible to assemble and then be allowed to sit without becoming too moist or wet. This cake can be made even the day before and taken just about anywhere. The frosting I use is a simple powdered sugar frosting with about 4 oz. of softened cream cheese added. And the taste - if I closed my eyes I would have sworn that I was eating traditional strawberry shortcake.
This is a great one for the Strawberry season coming up but I have to tell you that it's been sent to the manuscript file for my next cookbook Think With Your Taste Buds - Desserts.

I'm from Georgia, moved to North Carolina by way of Florida. I've been in Charlotte for 14 years and love it. The recipes in my book Stir, Laugh, Repeat are all tested by "Food Testers" of which I now have 24. They try a dish and rate it from 1-10 with only those scoring at least an 8 making the book. My website is a holding place for my 2nd book Stir, Laugh, Repeat... Again. Please visit my site to find new recipes and tips. All recipes are easy, using common ingredients and according to my testers, great!
When I wrote my introduction about a year ago and a lot has happened since then. I now have 5 blog sites that keep me pretty busy. Two of my sites are dedicated to nothing but recipes. Martha's Recipe Cabinet holds recipes that will be included in one of my upcoming cookbooks. Martha's Kitchen Korner consists of recipes that are good but still need just a bit of work. On A Book and A Dish you will find my book reviews and the author's favorite recipe. Stir, Laugh, Repeat holds reviews written about my cookbook Stir, Laugh, Repeat and the site you are now on is the "mother" site for all of these. Here you will find cooking tips, simple recipes and updates for additions to the "offspring sites." So, enjoy!
