Time 1h15m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Cooking spray
2 15- to 18-ounce boxes white cake mix (plus required ingredients)
5 to 6 strips all-natural berry-flavored fruit leather
8 ounces white chocolate
1 16- to 18-ounce jar strawberry preserves (not jelly)

Steps:

  • Coat the bottom and sides of an 11-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Prepare the cake mixes as directed; spread in the baking sheet, filling it about three-quarters of the way (you will have leftover batter).
  • Bake the cake at 350 degrees F until a toothpick comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool in the pan, then scrape off the top of the cake with a fork, leaving a border for the crust.
  • Cut the fruit leather into 1 1/2-inch circles using a cookie cutter or kitchen shears and set aside. (If the strips are too narrow, roll them out slightly with a rolling pin before cutting.)
  • Grate about 2 tablespoons of white chocolate into a bowl and set aside. Chop the remaining white chocolate.
  • Microwave the chopped white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth.
  • Mix the preserves with 2 tablespoons of the melted white chocolate in another bowl ¿ this will make the sauce more opaque.
  • Spread the strawberry sauce on the cake, inside the border.
  • Top with spoonfuls of the remaining melted white chocolate, spreading each slightly with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle with the grated white chocolate.
  • Use a kitchen torch to toast the melted white chocolate and the edges of the cake. Top with the fruit-leather circles.
