Method

Baking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugar

    In another bowl, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add the sugar and mix until well combined.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.

  6. 6

    Fold in Strawberries

    Gently fold in the sliced strawberries into the batter.

  7. 7

    Bake the Cake

    Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool and Assemble

    Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto wire racks to cool completely. Once cooled, layer the cakes with cajeta in between and on top.
