This Mango Shortcake Recipe showcases honey-sweet and aromatic mango as a delicious fruit topping for crisp, golden shortcakes with a tender crumb. This beautiful summer dessert recipe makes just 4 servings so you aren’t stuck with a huge batch, and it whips up in less than an hour!

But then I started thinking about it and decided it should be a dessert soup…I knew I’d have trouble getting Mike to eat a chilled savory soup, but he might go for dessert....
