Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a heart-shaped cake pan.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
-
Stir in the red food coloring until the batter is evenly pink.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
-
Once the cake has cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top and sides. Decorate with fresh strawberries.
-
Let the cake rest for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
-
Serve and enjoy!
