Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 ½ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
2 ¼ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
2 ½ cups cake flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 cups chopped fresh strawberries

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
Beat butter and cream cheese together in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Add sugar and beat until smooth and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and beat in eggs one at a time. Add 1 cup of flour and baking powder and mix until smooth. Beat in another 1 cup of flour until smooth; mix in remaining flour. Fold in strawberries gently. Spoon batter into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely and serve.
