    List of Ingredients




    1 (10oz) pkg frozen sliced strawberries, thawed
    1 cup butter or margarine, softened
    1 1/4 cups sugar
    2 eggs
    2 cups flour
    1 tsp baking powder
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 (8oz) carton sour cream
    1/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
    1/2 cup pecans, chopped
    1 tsp cinnamon

    GLAZE:
    Reserved strawberry juice
    1 tbsp plus 1 tsp cornstarch
    2 tsp lemon juice
    Whipped cream

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan.

    Drain strawberries, saving the juice for the glaze. Set both aside.

    Cream butter; gradually add the sugar, beating well. Add the eggs, one at a time; beating well after each one.

    Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt; add to creamed mixture alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix well after each addition.

    Combine brown sugar, pecans, and cinnamon; set aside.

    Pour half of the batter into the greased baking pan. Spoon strawberries over batter; sprinkle with half of the brown sugar mixture. Top with remaining batter, and sprinkle the top with remaining brown sugar mixture.

    Bake for 40-45 minutes or until it a wooden pick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. Remove cake from oven and let cool: cut into squares.

    GLAZE:
    Combine the juice and cornstarch in a small saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture begins to boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in lemon juice. (Makes 1 cup)

    Top each square with warm glaze and a dollop of whipped cream.

    Yield: 15 servings
