Best Strawberry Cake Ever

Ingredients:

For the cake:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

2 cups granulated sugar

3 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup whole milk

2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped

1/4 cup strawberry jam

For the frosting:

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

8 oz cream cheese, softened

4 cups powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup strawberry jam

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the creamed mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.

Fold in the chopped strawberries and strawberry jam.

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

For the frosting, beat together the butter and cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract and strawberry jam.

Spread the frosting between the layers and over the top and sides of the cake.
