Ingredients

Scale

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
2 ½ cups cake flour
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
4 large eggs (room temperature)
1 cup whole milk
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two round baking pans with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together cake flour, baking powder, and sugar until well combined.
In another bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture while alternating with milk until just combined. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
Pour the batter into prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Allow cakes to cool in pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks. Frost with cream cheese frosting and garnish with whole strawberries.
