I wasn’t sure what to call this tasty dessert.  I refuse to buy those sponge like, chemical tasting, dessert rounds that are supposed to go with strawberries.  So, I was thrilled to find a ‘real food’ substitute.  Well, not exactly a substitute, my kids have never eaten one of those spongy dessert rounds so they don’t know what I am switching out (only my dh has any idea).  This is a family favorite when the strawberry patch is ready for picking.

Shortbread

1 stick of butter

2 cups spelt flour, freshly ground

1/2 cup sucanat

1 tsp vanilla

Mix ingredients in the mixer until crumbly. Pour into 8×8 baking dish.  Press down into the dish.  Score lines and fork it.

Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Put into a bowl and add strawberries and real whipped cream.
