Strawberry Cake from Scratch image

It is hard to find scratch strawberry cakes, so this one is worth it weight in gold to me as a caterer. I made this cake for a child's birthday party. It was a major hit! Frost with cream cheese or vanilla frosting - or for a treat, use a chocolate glaze!

Time 40m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups white sugar
1 (3 ounce) package strawberry flavored Jell-O®
1 cup butter, softened
4 eggs (room temperature)
2 ¾ cups sifted cake flour
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 cup whole milk, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ cup strawberry puree made from frozen sweetened strawberries

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9 inch round cake pans.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and dry strawberry gelatin until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the batter alternately with the milk. Blend in vanilla and strawberry puree. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a small knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow cakes to cool in their pans over a wire rack for at least 10 minutes, before tapping out to cool completely.
