Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Electric Hand Mixer
  • Two Cake Pans
  • Measuring cups
  • Rubber Spatula
  • Cooling Rack

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package WHITE CAKE MIX
  • 1 box STRAWBERRY GELATIN
  • 1/2 cup MILk
  • 1 cup VEGETABLE
  • 4 large EGGS
  • 1/2 cup STRAWBERRIES
  • 1/2 cup BUTTER
  • 1 package CREAM CHEESE
  • 4 cups POWDERED SUGAR

Instructions
 

Step 1:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two round cake pans. This prevents the cake from sticking tightly.

Step 2:

  • Mix the cake mix and gelatin. Put them in your large mixing bowl. Stir them until the powders look pink.

Step 3:

  • Add the oil, eggs, and milk. Pour in the mashed strawberries now. Use your hand mixer on medium speed.

Step 4:

  • Beat the pink batter for two minutes. It should look very smooth and thick. Scrape the bowl as you go.

Step 5:

  • Pour the batter into your pans. Divide it equally between the two. Use a spatula to level the tops.

Step 6:

  • Bake the cakes for thirty minutes. Use a toothpick to check the center. It should come out clean and dry.

Step 7:

  • Cool the cakes in the pans first. Wait for about ten minutes at least. Then flip them onto the rack.

Step 8:

  • Make the sweet frosting in a bowl. Beat cream cheese and butter together. Add sugar and extra strawberries slowly.

Step 9:

  • Place one cake on a plate. Spread a thick layer of frosting. Put the second cake on top.

Step 10:

  • Frost the top and the sides. Use long and smooth strokes now. Garnish with fresh fruit if you like.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs for fluffiness.
  • Thaw the strawberries completely before mashing.
  • Do not overmix the cake batter.
  • Sift the powdered sugar for smoothness.
  • Cool the cake fully before frosting.
  • Grease the pans with extra butter.
  • Measure the oil very carefully today. This ensures the cake stays very moist.
