Convinced? Alright, here's the recipe. My friend sent me this link yesterday and I made a batch for the four of us. When I was patting out the dough to cut into squares (I didn't want to bother using a circular cookie cutter and then have extra dough to reshape so whenever I make biscuits or scones I always do squares) I realized that if I cut the dough into only 4 squares they would end up being quite large. I cut them into 8 more reasonable sized squares and figured (possibly) we might make two dessert nights out of them.
After we each ate a portion (and some of us may have "cleaned our plates exceptionally well" - read: licked 'em clean) the boys asked for another. And so, why not. We each had a second portion. S asked if we could have it every night for two weeks and, since strawberries are such a short season for us, I believe we will. I've already got the strawberries sliced up for a whole new batch tonight.
HEE HEE!
