Ingredients
  

For the Cake
  • 3 cups white cake flour or all-purpose flour for a denser cake
  • 1 cup unsalted butter at room temperature; margarine can be used as a substitute
  • 1.75 cups granulated sugar or brown sugar for deeper flavor
  • 4 eggs or aquafaba for a vegan alternative
  • 1 cup milk or almond/oat milk for dairy-free option
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt omit if using salted butter
For the Strawberry Sauce
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
For the Frosting
  • 8 ounces white chocolate or cream cheese for a tangy twist
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream or light cream for less richness

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • spatula
  • 9-inch Round Cake Pans
  • Oven
  • Saucepan
  • Hand mixer
  • Wire rack

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans. Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually incorporate flour and milk alternately until just combined.
  3. Pour the batter evenly into cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  4. Prepare the strawberry sauce by combining strawberries and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until softened and thickened, about 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
  5. Whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Melt white chocolate and fold into the whipped cream to make the frosting.
  6. Assemble the cake by leveling the tops, layering with strawberry sauce, and frosting with white chocolate buttercream.
  7. Chill the assembled cake for at least 30 minutes before serving to enhance flavors.
