DELICIOUS STRAWBERRY CAKE AND STRAWBERRY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
Saw this recipe in the "Cooking with Paula Deen" magazine and wanted to save the recipe for myself and share it with you as well. :) Looks so delicious I can't wait to make it. When preparing the frosting you will have left over "strawberry puree" to use for another time. (
