List of Ingredients
4 cups (1 L) fresh strawberries, hulled and cut in half
1 cup (250 ml) plus 2 Tbs (30 ml) sugar
2 cups (500 ml) all-purpose flour
3 Tbs (45 ml) baking powder
1/2 tsp (2 ml) salt
1/2 cup (125 ml) unsalted butter
1 cup (250 ml) milk
1/2 tsp (2 ml) vanilla extract
Whipped cream for garnish
Recipe
Toss the strawberries with 1 cup (250 ml) sugar in a bowl and
refrigerate for at least 1 hour. In a separate bowl combine the 2
tablespoons sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt. Blend in the
butter. Add the milk and vanilla and mix well. Grease two 8-inch (20
cm) round cake pans and divide the batter between them. Bake in a
preheated 450F (230C) oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and cool. Place one cake upside-down on a
serving platter and top with half the strawberries. Top with the
remaining cake layer and the rest of the strawberries. Serve
garnished with whipped cream. Serves 6 to 8.
