Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 oz cream cheese, room temp
1 1/2 c butter, room temp
3 c sugar
6 eggs, room temp
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 c all-purpose flour, sifted
3 c frozen strawberries, thawed
3 oz raspberry jell-o powder
1 pt whipped cream with sweetener

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees, grease and flour 10-inch bundt pan. Set aside. In large bowl, cream together cream cheese and butter until smooth then add sugar until fluffy. Blend in eggs and vanilla.
2. Gently fold in sifted flour until completely incorporated. Scrape batter into prepared pan and bake for 1 hr and 20 minutes or until cake tested comes out clean.
3. While cake is baking prepare strawberries. Thaw frozen berries and do not drain. Add one small package of either strawberry or raspberry jell-o powder. Let sit in fridge before serving. In medium bowl whip up a pint of heavy whipping cream, sweeten as desire. I like to add homemade vanilla extract and whip until soft peaks form. Leftover cream is perfect the next day in coffee! To plate: Place a slice of pound cake in bowl, top with chilled juicy strawberries and whipped cream.
