While the kids, with the exception of my nephew Ayden, were at the Summer Reading Club at our local library, I decided to do a little baking. It was very easy to make. I did not have a pastry cutter so I used my fingers instead (which worked just fine). It is a delicious treat. The lemon extract adds the perfect taste to this wonderful shortcake. I think I like it even better than strawberry shortcake. Even Ayden said it was super and he could not wait until Ben got home to taste it. I highly recommend this recipe.

You're right. I have lemonade on the brain right now I guess. About the shortcake.... yep, 5 Tbsp. of sugar was just fine. The berries sweetened up the shortcake, and with the whipped cream there was additional sweetness. I thought the shortcake itself was delicious, and even better the next day. ~Michelle Jan – Whoops!

We did 3/4 c. sugar in the lemonade. It was tart, but not too tart. I thought it was the perfect mix. ~ Michelle Jan – Take another look at the recipe I used. We did 3/4 c. sugar in the lemonade.

I pulled it up today (Blueberries are on sale for $1/pint this week) as I was reviewing possible recipes to use up my stash of blueberries. I thought it looked a little short on the sugar content. I was thinking of doubling the amount in the recipe, so I Googled the name of the recipe to see if anyone in the blogosphere had made it...and there you were! Were 5 tablespoons enough? I'm usually the type that uses less sugar than the recipe, but this seemed way off. I’ve had this recipe saved on my computer since I first saw it in the NY Times in 1999 and haven’t made it yet.

I've always avoided baking shortcakes, coz I don't eat whipped cream, but have never thought of serving it with ice-cream!
