Strawberry Cake (Printable Version)

Soft cake filled with fresh strawberries and fluffy whipped cream, great for a special Valentine’s celebration.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Dry Stuff

01 - 8 grams baking powder
02 - 250 grams all-purpose flour
03 - 300 grams sugar

→ Wet Stuff

04 - 3 large eggs
05 - 115 grams softened unsalted butter
06 - 5 milliliters vanilla extract
07 - 240 milliliters whole milk

→ Fruit & Extras

08 - 240 milliliters whipped cream
09 - 150 grams chopped fresh strawberries

# Detailed Preparation Steps:

01 - Get your oven hot to 175°C. Coat two round cake pans well with grease and set them aside for the batter.
02 - Sift together flour, sugar, and baking powder in a big bowl so everything's blended nicely.
03 - Put softened butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla into the dry mix. Use a mixer or whisk to blend until the batter is smooth with no bumps.
04 - Carefully fold chopped strawberries into your batter with a spatula to keep them from breaking up too much.
05 - Split the batter equally between the pans and even out the tops. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
06 - Take the cakes out of the oven and let them cool completely on a rack before you add any frosting or toppings.
07 - Spread whipped cream thickly over the cooled cakes. If you want, add some extra fresh strawberries on top before serving.

# Helpful Tips:

01 - Make sure the eggs and butter are at room temp so your batter turns out just right.
02 - Let the cakes cool all the way down or the whipped cream might start melting.
