This three-layer strawberry cake gets its delicious flavor from chopped fresh strawberries and strawberry gelatin. Slather with the homemade strawberry buttercream frosting for a rich cake that's truly out of this world.
1 ................(18.25-ounce) package white cake mix
1 ................(3-ounce) package strawberry gelatin 4 .................large eggs
1/2 .............cup sugar
1/4 .............cup all-purpose flour
1/2 .............cup finely chopped fresh strawberries 1................. cup vegetable oil
1/2 ..............cup milk
***Strawberry Buttercream Frosting (recipe below)***
**Garnish: whole strawberries**
1 . Beat the cake mix and next 7 ingredients at low speed with an electric mixer 1 minute. Scrape down the sides, and beat at medium speed 2 more minutes, stopping to scrape down sides, if needed. (Strawberries should be well blended into batter.)
2. Pour batter into 3 greased and floured 9-inch cake-pans.
3. Bake at 350° for 23 minutes or until cakes spring back when lightly pressed with a finger.
4. Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
5. Spread Strawberry Buttercream Frosting between layers and on top and sides of cake. Garnish, if desired. Serve immediately, or chill up to 1 week.
TIP:
I used Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe Classic White Cake Mix without pudding.
To make ahead:
Place finished cake in the refrigerator, uncovered, and chill for 20 minutes or until the frosting sets. Cover well with wax paper, and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
To freeze:
Wrap chilled cake with aluminum foil, and freeze up to 6 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
TIP:
This cake keeps best in the refrigerator.
***Strawberry Buttercream Frosting ***
Perk up a traditional buttercream frosting by adding fresh chopped strawberries. The fresh strawberries add flavor and a beautiful pink tone to the frosting
1 ................cup butter, softened
2 ................(16-ounce) packages powdered sugar, sifted
1 ...............cup finely chopped fresh strawberries
Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer 20 seconds or until fluffy. Add powdered sugar and chopped strawberries, beating at low speed until creamy.
(Add more sugar if frosting is too thin, or add strawberries if too thick.)
