Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Cake:
  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup strawberry puree
  • For the Frosting:
  • 1½ cups unsalted butter, softened
  • 6 cups powdered sugar
  • ½ cup strawberry puree
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • For the White Chocolate Drip:
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • For Decoration:
  • Fresh strawberries
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare three 8-inch round cake pans by greasing and flouring them.

Step 2: Prepare Dry Ingredients

Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and set aside.

Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugar

In another bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4: Combine Ingredients

Gradually add the dry ingredients and milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Fold in ½ cup of strawberry puree.

Step 5: Bake the Cakes

Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely.

Step 6: Make the Frosting

For the frosting, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually mix in powdered sugar, the remaining strawberry puree, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.

Step 7: Assemble the Cake

Level the cooled cakes if needed, then stack them, spreading the strawberry frosting between each layer.

Step 8: Prepare the White Chocolate Drip

To make the white chocolate drip, melt the chocolate chips with heavy cream in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Let it cool slightly before carefully pouring over the frosted cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.

Step 9: Decorate the Cake

Decorate with fresh strawberries and sprinkles for a festive touch!

Notes

Note 1:

Make sure all your ingredients, especially the butter, are at room temperature for better mixing.

Note 2:

Check the cake doneness using a toothpick; it should come out clean from the center.

Note 3:

If the white chocolate drip is too thick, you can add a little more cream to achieve the desired consistency.

Note 4:

Store any leftover cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
