Key lime, rosewater, and hints of pineapple, along with notes of ripe peaches, watermelon and pomegranate. Totally refreshing.

2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped
1-1/2 quarts fresh or frozen strawberries, sliced

In a bowl, cream sugar and shortening. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Combine dry ingredients and add alternately with milk to the creamed mixture. Spread in a greased 9-in. square baking pan. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
