Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

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

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugar

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

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

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

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

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

  6. 6

    Fold in Strawberries

    Gently fold the sliced strawberries into the batter until evenly distributed.

  7. 7

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool the Cake

    Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
