List of Ingredients




Strawberry Cream Cake from David


Cake

1 1/4 cups cake flour (5 ounces)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1 cup sugar (7 ounces)
5 large eggs, room temperature (2 whole and 3 separated)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Strawberry Filling

2 lbs fresh strawberries, washed, dried, and stemmed (medium or large, about 2 quarts)
4-6 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons kirsch or cherry flavored liqueur
1 pinch table salt

Whipped Cream

8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar (3 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon table salt
2 cups heavy cream



Recipe




FOR THE CAKE:.

Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees.

Grease and flour round 9 by 2-inch cake pan (pan must be at least 2" high!) or 9-inch springform pan and line with parchment paper.

Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and all but 3 tablespoons sugar in mixing bowl.

Whisk in 2 whole eggs and 3 yolks (reserving whites), butter, water, and vanilla; whisk until smooth.

In clean bowl of standing mixer fitted with whisk attachment, beat remaining 3 egg whites at medium-low speed until frothy, 1 to 2 minutes.

With machine running, gradually add remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, increase speed to medium-high, and beat until soft peaks form, 60 to 90 seconds.

Stir one-third of whites into batter to lighten; add remaining whites and gently fold into batter until no white streaks remain.

Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until toothpick or wooden skewer inserted into center of cake comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes.
Cool in pan 10 minutes, then invert cake onto greased wire rack; peel off and discard parchment.

Invert cake again; cool completely, about 2 hours.


FOR THE STRAWBERRY FILLING:

Halve 24 of best-looking berries and reserve.
Quarter remaining berries; toss with 4 to 6 tablespoons sugar (depending on sweetness of berries) in medium bowl and let sit 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Strain juices from berries and reserve (you should have about 1/2 cup).

In work bowl of food processor fitted with metal blade, give macerated berries five 1-second pulses (you should have about 1 1/2 cups).
In small saucepan over medium-high heat, simmer reserved juices and Kirsch until syrupy and reduced to about 3 tablespoons, 3 to 5 minutes.

Pour reduced syrup over macerated berries, add pinch of salt, and toss to combine.

Set aside until cake is cooled.
