A simple cake that will taste like you slaved over it all day, but your secret is safe with me!
1. Grease and flour two 9-inch round pans. In a large bowl combine cake mix and Jello. Add egg whites and oil; beat until well blended.
2. In a small bowl or food processor, mash strawberries in their juice. Set aside 3 tablespoons for icing. Add water and remaining berries to the batter and mix. Pour into pans.
3. Bake at 350ºF for 20-25 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the cake. Cool for 10 minutes. Remove from pans to wire rack and cool completely.
4. For the icing, combine butter and reserved strawberries in small bowl. Gradually beat in confectioners’ sugar until light and fluffy (I added extra confectioners’ sugar to make the icing a little thicker). Place on the cake on a serving platter. Top with half of the icing. Repeat layers.

This cake is wonderful. I’ve made it for years. A wonderful cake for birthdays and on Mother’s Day. I usually frost it with lite whipped topping instead of frosting. Sometimes I add a little bit of the thawed strawberries to the whipped topping when frosting the cake. First I process them in the blender then fold them into the topping. Makes for a pretty pink frosting. Can’t wait to make it for my Mom this Sunday as it’s also her 87th birthday!
