Pineapple Shortcakes

I love dessert! I like having something sweet after dinner. I've had this dessert on my "To Make" list for several weeks now. But because for the last 3 weeks, the kids and I have been under the weather, it hasn't gotten made. Everybody is better now, so bring on the sweetness!

I found this recipe in one of my Rachael Ray Every Day Magazines and it is awesome. It took me like 5 secs to make and I got a YUM-O from everyone in the family for it. The original recipe called for a can of premade biscuits, but I used the recipe from the back of my Bisquick box and not only was it easy, but super yummy!

But what I think really makes this recipe sing, is the cinnamon-sugar rum flavored whipped cream. It is pretty dang good, if I do say so myself!

If you need an easy dessert that screams summer, this is it!
