Delicious! Followed the recipe exactly. TIP: make sure your strawberries are completely thawed, even microwave them until they are luke warm. It will blend so much better while baking this way....I discovered by trial and error. :)

I lost my copy of this recipe so was so happy to find it here. Thank you so much. If you haven't tried this recipes, it is wonderful. Especially enjoy in when fresh strawberries aren't available

This is one of my favorite recipes. I still have the original recipe torn from a PILLSBURY flour bag about 50 years ago.

I made some changes to this recipe. I used fresh berries, not frozen. My other changes were in the interests of making it healthier. I used white whole wheat flour, not all purpose. I used only one egg and 1/3 cup egg whites instead of three. I used fat free vanilla yogurt instead of shortening. Of course the milk was fat free and my the jello was the sugar free stuff. Barring tonight, I had not had this dessert in over 25 years, but even making it a healthier lighter version, I still see why it was my favorite. Thank you so much for posting this recipe.

Wow! This is so great! I had this recipe years ago and "loaned" this recipe to a friend and never got it back. I used to make this all the time and when it's cold it's even better tasting! Thank you so much!

this was very good. especially if you want a break from store bought shortcakes. I did just like jane did and made it easy by doing a cake mix. It turned out really moist, so make sure you add enough gelatin to the mix of strawberries.

I had lots of strawberries left over and tried this using the cake mix hint from the previous review (Thanks!!!). My only difference was that I did not have frozen strawberry so I mixed one box of jello with 1/2 c boiling water and 1/2 c cold water-then added that to sliced strawberries. Prepared and baked as directed then topped with cool whip. I cannot tell you how much a hit this was!! Adults and kids alike all enjoyed this--tasted better than any strawberry shortcake!!

We all love this recipe. Most of the time I make it exactly as written, but the last time I decided to shortcut the shortcut cake and I used a box yellow cake mix. Blah! Didn't like it at all that way. So in my opinion it's WAY better to make it as written. YUM! Thanks.
