Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Directions

  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 mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugar

    In another bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

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

  6. 6

    Fold in Strawberries

    Gently fold in the chopped strawberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  7. 7

    Pour into Pans

    Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans.

  8. 8

    Bake the Cakes

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  9. 9

    Cool the Cakes

    Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

  10. 10

    Serve

    Once cooled, frost with your favorite icing or serve plain. Enjoy your homemade strawberry cake!
