Old-Fashioned Shortcake Recipe

Recipe by: Jennifer Kuchnicki Merzlicker

"This is a fabulous old fashioned recipe given to me by a friend. It was her mother's recipe and it is the best shortcake. It sops up all the juice and the touch of nutmeg sends it over the top. My very favorite recipe for strawberry shortcake!"
