Method

Base Layer

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mix the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Stir until fully combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Bake the Base

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool the Base

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let the base layer cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Filling

  1. 7

    Prepare the Filling

    In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.

  2. 8

    Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.

  3. 9

    Combine Filling

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated and fluffy.

Assembly and Topping

  1. 10

    Layer the Filling

    Once the base layer has cooled, spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the top.

  2. 11

    Add Strawberries

    Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the cream cheese filling.

  3. 12

    Top with Whipped Cream

    Spoon the whipped cream over the strawberries, covering them completely.

  4. 13

    Garnish

    Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.

  5. 14

    Chill and Serve

    Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld. Slice and serve chilled.
