Strawberry Layer Cake Recipe - This specific strawberry layer cake will be the first dessert of the 12 months; oh and it’s a very good one! Tonya (one in the ladies in our church), did this cake for her son’s special birthday. While chomping down our second slice; I asked the woman for the recipe. It was delightful and I’m sharing this specific goodness with you.
Also, I have personally finally tried the different way of making the biskvit wedding cake layers and they turned out excellent (I believe this as a a more “fool-proof” recipe. Also and the strawberry/chocolate decorations have been ridiculously easy (plenty regarding oohs and ahhs within the 3D chocolate).
Oh oh and something more thing; the beauty of this wedding cake is that you can really easily slice everything in half (6 offspring, 1 cup sugar, a single cup flour…. blah blah) to make a smaller cake but it will surely turn out just as dang very good.
Ingredients
- 10 large eggs, room temperature, divided
- 2 cups granulated sugar, divided
- 2 mugs all-purpose flour, divided
- 1 cup heavy turning cream
- 2 (8oz) package deal cream cheese, softened from room temp
- ¾ glass granulated sugar
- A couple of lbs Fresh strawberries (1½ lbs to blend and also inside the cake and ½ lb to decorate the top).
- Chocolate chips to burn and decorate the top; recommended.
Instructions
- Grease and series only the bottom of a 9x13" cake pan with parchment paper (line 2 pots and pans if you have 2). I have found it's far best not to line or perhaps grease the sides of the griddle or the cake becomes considerably miss-shaped.
- You will bake your current cake layers separately thus for each biskvit layer: inside the bowl of an electric mixer, take together 6 eggs and also 1 cup sugar in high speed for 10 minute. it will be 3-4 times inside volume.
- Sift in a single cup all-purpose flour and also use a spatula to carefully fold it in just right up until well incorporated and no a lot more clumps of flour continue to be. Scrape from the bottom of the pan to make sure there aren't virtually any trapped pockets of flour, but don't overwork the particular batter or it will shrink.
- Transfer to lined preparing pan and bake right up until top is golden and also toothpick comes out clean 17-20 min.
- (While the first level is baking, start producing your second cake layer continuing steps 1-3 above)
- Get rid of baked cake from the griddle by running a thin edged spatula around the sides to ease it, then let it great to room temperature just before removing the parchment document.
- Cut strawberries into halves or groups and place them in the plate of a food processor; pulse 12-15 times or until the uniformity of a chunky applesauce; reserve.
- Beat together ointment cheese and ¾ glass sugar until smooth (1 min). Add 1 glass heavy whipping cream and also beat on high speed right up until fluffy (2-3 minutes).
- Cut each cooled wedding cake layer in half. Place the 1st layer on your serving food (this cake is too huge and heavy to exchange so put it on the food you're serving it on).
- Spread the first layer together with ⅓ of the strawberry mix. Spread a very thin level of frosting on the next half and place it over the 1st layer so the strawberries and also cream are hugging. Do it again with the next layers. And so the order from the bottom up will be: cake; strawberry; cream; wedding cake; strawberry; cream; cake; strawberries; cream; cake; cream (frost the top and sides together with remaining frosting).
- Decorate the most notable with fresh strawberries and also chocolate (see chocolate redecorating tutorial below).
