Craving some strawberry shortcake, but not in the mood to spend too much time in the kitchen?  Well, here’s your answer – the ultimate fusion of strawberries, cream, and biscuits – Martha Stewart’s Strawberry-Shortcake Cookies.  Like a scone in cookie form, these are sweet and tender with a crunchy sugared top.

This month’s Cookie Carnival selection will make your life a little easier, especially if someone in your household’s favorite dessert is strawberry shortcake.  You can even top it with a little whipped cream if you have it.  These are best the day they are made, but still good the next.  After that, if there are any left, 5 minutes in the oven at 350 will crisp them up again nicely.
