Description

A delicious cake made with real strawberries topped with milk chocolate icing!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE CAKE:
  • 1 cup Strawberries, Chopped With Juice
  • 1 box White Cake Mix (18 Ounce Box)
  • ¾ cups Milk
  • 1 box Strawberry Gelatin (3 Oz)
  • ¾ cups Oil
  • 3 whole Eggs
  • _____
  • FOR THE ICING:
  • 1 stick Butter, Melted
  • ⅔ cups Hershey's Cocoa
  • 3 cups Powdered Sugar
  • ⅓ cups Whipping Cream/milk Plus More To Thin Icing
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Preparation

Cake Directions:

Grease and flour two 8-inch round baking pans or one 9×13 inch pan, or use Pam spray with flour in it.

Gently mash strawberries by placing them in a large plastic bag and rolling over it with a rolling pin or large can – or you can also use a food processor.

Place cake mix, milk, gelatin mix, vegetable oil, and eggs in large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about two minutes. Add in strawberries and juice, mix again until well combined.

Pour into baking pans. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. If using two round pans, allow to sit for ten minutes before turning out of the pans to cool completely. If baking in 9×13 pan, simply allow to cool in pan.

Icing Directions:

Melt butter. Stir in cocoa. Add cream and sugar, alternating a little of each at a time, while continuing to mix on medium speed. (You can add more milk to get to your desired icing consistency.) Stir in vanilla after mixing.

Frost the cooled cakes when you are ready. This icing mix will cover two layer cakes.

This is a lovely cake! I’ve just made it for the Mothers Day gathering at my parents. I KNOW it will be the hit! I”ve decided to slightly cut a strawberry in slices leaving the top on as garnish.
