Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- ½ cup cocoa powder (for chocolate layer)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (mashed)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in milk and vanilla.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder. Gradually incorporate into wet mixture without overmixing.
- Divide batter into three bowls: leave one as-is for vanilla, mix cocoa powder into another for chocolate, and mash strawberries into the last for strawberry flavor.
- Pour each batter into prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.
- For glaze, heat mashed strawberries with powdered sugar in a saucepan until smooth. Cool slightly before drizzling over cooled cakes.
