OLD-FASHIONED SHORTCAKE
This is a fabulous old-fashioned recipe given to me by a friend. It was her mother's recipe and it is the best shortcake. It sops up all the juice and the touch of nutmeg sends it over the top. My very favorite recipe for strawberry shortcake!

MOM'S STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE
When I was growing up, Mom sometimes experimented with different dessert recipes, but this tried-and-true spongy shortcake was always great just the way it was. It melted in my mouth! -Karen Wingate, Coldwater, Kansas

FLUFFY ORANGE SHORTCAKE
Steps:
- Have ready an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Sift flour, measure, resift 3 times with baking powder, salt and 3/4 cup sugar. Put the egg yolks into a mixer fitted with a whisk, add 1/4 cup cold water and the lemon juice, then beat on medium speed until thick and spongy, 4 to 5 minutes. Without stopping the beaters, gradually add 1/2 cup sugar and the vanilla and beat until mixture is again thick and spongy. Now turn the mixer to the lowest speed and add flour in 4 portions, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl constantly with a spatula. Beat until batter is smooth. Fold in the lemon zest.
- Remove and clean the whisk. In another mixer bowl (or in a bowl with a hand whisk), quickly beat the egg whites until stiff enough to form peaks, then beat in the remaining 1/4 cup sugar until the whites form shiny pointed peaks that curve at the tips. Fold the yolk mixture into the whites, lightly but thoroughly. Flow batter into the tube pan.
- Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and invert over a large funnel or bottle. When just cooled, remove the cake from the pan using a thin-bladed knife. Slice the cake into 4 layers. Wrap and freeze 2 layers for up to 2 months. Ice the other two and eat now.
- Place one layer on a cake plate. In a small pan, warm the marmalade and eau de vie until loose, then brush this on the bottom layer. Whip the cream with the confectioners' sugar until it holds soft peaks; sweeten with more sugar if you like. Spread about 1 cup of the cream over the marmalade (now cooled). Place the second layer of cake on top, then ice the cake with the remaining whipped cream and decorate the top with slivers of candied peel. Chill and serve within 2 hours.

SUPER SHORTCAKE
Delicious recipe from Taste of Home magazine. Makes a light, fluffy, buttery shortcake. Different from the other shortcake recipes in that it has sour cream in the dough. Awesome with some with strawberries and cream, or just some butter. I plan on replacing my biscuit recipe with this one. The recipe called for 2 tbsp sugar, but I increased it to 1/3 cup because I love things sweet. If you don't have sour cream, you can substitute 1/2 cup of soured milk.
