Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just blended.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
-
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
-
Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of whipped cream on top, then arrange sliced strawberries.
-
Place the second cake layer on top and repeat with whipped cream and strawberries.

Garnish with additional whipped cream and whole strawberries.

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
