Sweet Endings! Three Summer Fruit Pies

Pies, galettes, and crostatas, oh my! Celebrate summer fruit with a beautiful baked delight. IN THIS ISSUE, we acquaint you with some of our very favorite fresh fruit desserts. We include three delicious recipes that provide a sweet finish to any summer occasion.

A Seasonal Treat! Sweet Biscuit Strawberry Shortcake

One of our favorite ways to enjoy fresh strawberries is as strawberry shortcake -- the biscuit kind, not the cake kind. We grew up with this treat, so its seasonal comeback revives all kinds of wonderful memories in addition to all the great tastes! In this recipe, chopped strawberries are added to the biscuit dough, which makes the biscuits sweeter, and the biscuit color a lovely shade of pink! 

Fresh Cream Puffs with Berry Filling

Expanding your repertoire of kitchen skills these days? Add cream puffs to your list of culinary mastery while celebrating the return of fresh berries. The light, delicate, cream puffs with sweet berry filling are perfect for Mother’s Day, too! This recipe starts with a classic French pâte à choux and finishes things off with bright, jammy berries, and homemade whipped cream.
