Method

Cake Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat 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, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugar

    In another bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

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

  5. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined. Fold in the pureed strawberries.

  6. 6

    Bake the Cake

    Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. 7

    Cool the Cakes

    Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and let them cool completely on a wire rack.

  8. 8

    Prepare Crunch Topping

    In a small bowl, combine crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar to create the crunch topping.

  9. 9

    Assemble the Cake

    Once the cakes are cool, place one layer on a serving plate, spread some whipped cream on top, and sprinkle with the crunch topping. Add the second layer, repeat with whipped cream and crunch topping.
