My birthday cake this year 🍓🎂

Strawberry Shortcake — soft vanilla & lemon cake, fresh strawberries and vanilla whipped cream. Simple, fresh and not overly sweet… exactly the kind of cake I love. 🤍
Save this one for your next special occasion 🍓

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE CAKE

Cake
• 1¾ cups (250g) all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp (8g) cornstarch
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, very soft
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup (120ml) whole milk
• 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
• 1 tbsp lemon zest
• 2 tsp (10ml) pure vanilla extract

Strawberry filling
• 1⅓ cups (200g) fresh strawberries, chopped
• 1 tbsp (12g) granulated sugar

Vanilla whipped cream
• 2 cups (500ml) cold heavy 35% whipping cream
• 2 tbsp (12g) skim milk powder
• 1–2 tbsp (12–25g) granulated sugar
• 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract

For decorating
• 2 cups fresh strawberries, halved

Method

Preheat oven to 175°C. Line and lightly grease an 8-inch round deep cake pan.

Sift together the flour, cornstarch and baking powder. Add the sugar and salt and mix. Add the softened butter, beaten eggs, milk, lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla. Mix until smooth.

Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 35–45 minutes, or until golden and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.

Mix the chopped strawberries with the sugar and leave for 10–20 minutes until juicy. Strain and reserve the strawberry juice.

Whip the cold cream with the skim milk powder until peaks begin to form. Add the sugar and vanilla and continue whipping until semi-firm peaks form.

Slice the cooled cake horizontally into two layers. Add whipped cream and strawberries to the first layer, place the second cake layer on top and finish with the remaining cream and fresh strawberries.
Drizzle with the reserved strawberry juice just before serving. 🍓
