Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Beat cake mix, strawberry gelatin, eggs, sugar, chopped fresh strawberries, milk, vegetable oil and all-purpose flour at low speed with an electric mixer for 1 minute. Scrape down sides, and beat at medium speed for 2 more minutes, stopping to scrape down sides, as needed. The strawberries should be well blended. Pour batter into 3 greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans. Bake for 23 minutes, or until cakes spring back when pressed lightly with a finger. Let cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool completely. To make frosting, beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy (about 20 seconds). Add sugar and strawberries, beating at low speed until creamy. (Add more sugar if frosting is too thin, or add strawberries if too thick.) Spread the frosting between layers and on top and sides of cake. Garnish with whole and halved strawberries. Serve immediately, or chill for up to 1 week.

This came in my March issue of Southern Living. I immediately saw it and felt the need to post. My family loves anything Strawberry and this is amazingly easy and oh so delicious. I hope you all enjoy it too!! I doubled the amount of frosting as they did in the magazine.

Steps:
- Combine fresh strawberries and two tablespoons of sugar in a blender. Pulse until strawberries are reduced to a pulp. DO NOT blend until smooth. (You will use ½ cup of the puree for the cake. Reserve the remaining puree to use in the frosting.) Set aside and allow to macerate further while you perform next few steps.
- Preheat oven to 350°F | 175°C. Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- Whip eggs whites until they form medium peaks. Set aside.
- Combine sifted flour and baking powder. Set aside.
- Whisk together milk, strawberry puree, lemon zest, and vanilla. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, sugar, dry strawberry Jell-O®, and salt. Beat in eggs yolks one at a time.
- Stir flour mixture into batter alternately with strawberry-milk mixture.
- Gently fold in whipped egg whites.
- Pour batter evenly into the three prepared cake pans. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick or skewer comes out clean.
- Allow cakes to cool in their pans over wire rack for at least 10 minutes. Carefully tap out onto wire rack to cool completely.
- Using an electric mixer, beat butter on medium-high until light and fluffy.
- With mixer on low, add powdered sugar to the whipped butter alternately with ⅓ cup pureed strawberries. Combine thoroughly into a soft, creamy mixture that will hold its shape. Cool in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, or until it has firmed up slightly.
- Spread the top of the bottom layer of cake with frosting. Add the middle layer and refrigerate again until the frosting has firmed up a bit. Add the top layer and frost sides and top of cake. For a cleaner frosting, apply a crumb coat first to keep the crumbs out of your final frosting. If you are spreading the frosting on thick, you may want to refrigerate the cake after you apply the frosting between each layer until the frosting has firmed just a bit; about 10-15 minutes for each layer. (If you are frosting it thin, you probably won't need to do this.)
- Decorate with fresh strawberries if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray three 9-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray.
- Mix cake mix, gelatin, eggs, oil, sugar, strawberries, milk, and flour for cake together in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until just combined. Scrape the sides of the bowl, and increase mixer speed to medium; beat for 3 minutes. Pour cake batter evenly into the prepared pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 23 minutes. Cool cakes in pans on a rack for about 10 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely in the refrigerator.
- Meanwhile, make frosting. Beat butter in a large bowl at medium speed until it's pale yellow and fluffy. Add confectioners' sugar and strawberries and beat at low speed until well combined and creamy. Set in the refrigerator for 5 to 10 minutes to firm it up slightly (you just don't want it to be runny).
- Spread one of the layers of cake with frosting then refrigerate. Frost the second layer and refrigerate until the frosting on both layers has firmed up a bit. Assemble all the layers and frost the top and sides. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
