Description
A moist, fluffy cake layered with fresh strawberries and whipped cream, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 2 cups of fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup of heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup of powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour your cake pan to prevent sticking.
- Cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy—this could take about 4-5 minutes.
- Add the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and mix until well-blended.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack.
- Whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Layer the cooled cake with fresh sliced strawberries and the prepared whipped cream.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Freeze individual slices for up to a month, avoiding freezing the whipped cream topping.
