Cook A Doodle Doo

by Bev w/ Chef Buddies
(Pasco Wa.)

This is an excellent book for teaching cooking to 5 to 8 years old. It is Little Red Hen's Great Grand Son and he makes a Strawberry shortcake with the help of a few friends.

Cook-a-Doodle-Doo!

Strawberry Shortcakes

Strawberry slices
Cool whip or whip cream

Homemade shortcake recipe
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup milk
Blend salt, flour, baking powder and sugar together. Add milk in slowly and combine until moistened. On a greased cookie sheet drop spoonfuls of dough.

Bake at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool. Slice through the middle of each shortcake. Top bottom half with sliced strawberries and add whip cream. Place top half of shortcake on the cool whip and strawberries.

You can make the shortcakes as big as you'd like just allow enough time for cooking depending on their size.

This is not the Cook-a-doodle-doo recipe from the book
by: Nancy

I was in an hurry and didn't have time to look for my recipe from the book, and I thought I found it here. It's a little misleading when the recipe is linking to and references the book. This recipe (without butter) is a lack-luster version of shortcake. If you're looking for the Cook-a-doodle-doo recipe, this isn't it! Shame on me for being in such a hurry.
