Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 8-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually mix into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  4. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  7. In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
  8. Once the cakes are cool, slice each cake in half horizontally to create layers.
  9. On the first layer, spread a generous amount of whipped cream and top with sliced strawberries.
  10. Place the second layer on top and repeat the process. Finish by topping with more whipped cream and strawberries.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries.
  • You can also add a splash of vanilla or almond extract to the whipped cream for extra flavor.
