STRAWBERRY CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
The fresh, natural flavors you get from making your own strawberry puree is worth the time. This cake and its frosting also gets its rosy hue from fresh strawberries rather than food coloring.

Steps:
- For the puree: Pulse the strawberries in a food processor, scraping as needed, until a smooth puree forms. Add the strawberry puree to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the puree reduces by half (to about 1 cup). Transfer the puree to a bowl and set aside to cool.
- For the cake: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat two 9-inch round cake pans with nonstick baking spray. Line the bottoms with parchment rounds; lightly coat parchment with nonstick spray.
- Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large bowl until combined. Beat the butter, granulated sugar, oil and vanilla in another bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the whole eggs and yolks one at a time, beating to blend between additions and occasionally scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl, until the batter is completely combined, smooth and creamy. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Fold in 1/2 cup of the cooled strawberry puree. Reserve the rest of the puree for the frosting.
- Scrape the batter evenly into the prepared pans. Smooth the tops. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through, until the cakes are a light golden brown and a tester inserted into the centers comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer the pans to a wire rack and let the cakes cool for 30 minutes. Run a knife around the sides of the cakes and invert onto the wire rack. Remove the parchment and let the cakes cool completely.
- For the frosting: Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy. Gradually beat in the butter, beating until smooth. Sift the confectioners' sugar into the bowl and beat until smooth. Add the vanilla and beat until light and fluffy. Remove 3 cups of the frosting to a medium bowl and set aside. Fold the reserved strawberry puree into the remaining frosting. Refrigerate both until slightly chilled and firm, about 20 minutes.
- To assemble the cake: Place one cake domed-side down on a platter. Spread 1 1/2 cups of the strawberry frosting evenly over the top. Place the remaining cake domed-side up on top. Spread the top and sides of the cake with 1 1/2 cups of the white frosting. Smooth out completely to make an even crumb coat. (It's okay if some of the cake shows through. This is just a base layer.) Refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the frosting set.
- Spread the remaining white frosting on the top of the cake and the upper half of the sides. There should be a band all around the bottom of the cake with the crumb coat exposed. Fill in the exposed area with 1 cup of the strawberry frosting. Use a large offset spatula to smooth the top and sides of the cake. The strawberry and white frostings should blend together during smoothing to create an ombre effect. Transfer the remaining strawberry frosting to a piping bag or resealable plastic bag fitted with a medium star tip. Pipe 8 rosettes evenly spaced along the top border of the cake.

Steps:
- Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease three 9-inch round cake pans with solid vegetable shortening, then dust with flour. Shake out the excess flour. Set the pans aside.
- Place the cake mix, strawberry gelatin, mashed strawberries and juice, oil, milk and eggs in a large mixing bowl and blend with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes more, scraping the sides down again if needed. The strawberries should be well blended into the batter. Fold in the coconut and pecans. Divide the batter among the prepared pans and place them in the oven; if your oven is not large enough, place two pans on the center rack and place the third pan in the center of the highest rack.
- Bake the cakes until they are light brown and just start to pull away from the sides of the pan, 28 to 30 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the layer on the highest oven rack. Remove the pans from the oven and place them on wire racks to cool for 10 minutes. Run a dinner knife around the edge of each layer and invert each onto a rack, then invert again onto another rack so that the cakes are right side up. Allow them to cool completely, 30 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, prepare the frosting. Combine the cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on low speed for about 30 seconds. Stop the machine and add the sugar and drained strawberries. Blend the frosting on low until the sugar has been incorporated. Then raise the speed to medium and mix the frosting another minute or until the frosting lightens and is well combined. Fold in the coconut and pecans.
- To assemble, place one cake layer, right side up, on a serving platter. Spread the top with frosting. Add another cake layer, right side up, and frost the top. Repeat this process with the third layer and frost the top. Use the remaining frosting to frost the sides, working with clean, smooth strokes. Serve at once or chill the cake for later serving.
- Place this cake uncovered, in the refrigerator until the frosting sets, 20 minutes. Cover the cake with waxed paper and store, in the refrigerator, for up to 1 week. Or freeze it, wrapped in aluminum foil, for up to 6 months. Thaw the cake overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325° F. Grease and flour three 9-inch cake pans lined with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together cake mix and dry Jell-O mix. Add mashed (or diced) strawberries, eggs and oil. Use an electric mixer on low speed to combine for 30 seconds. Add the buttermilk, increase the speed to medium, and continue mixing for 2 more minutes.
- Divide the batter evenly between the three prepared pans. Tap the pans on the counter once or twice to release any big air bubbles.
- Bake the cakes for 27-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cake comes out clean.
- Cool the cakes in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, cream cheese and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and beat until smooth, about 3 more minutes. Add the strawberries and mix on low just until combined. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until ready to use.
- Using a large serrated knife, slice a thin layer off the tops of the cakes to create a flat surface. Discard the extra cake.
- Place one cake layer on your cake stand or plate. Evenly cover the top with a layer of frosting. Top with the second cake layer and evenly cover the top with another layer of frosting. Top with the third cake layer. Spread the remaining frosting all over the top and sides. Refrigerate for at least one hour (or overnight) before slicing and serving.

GRANNY'S STRAWBERRY CAKE
This cake is a recipe I got from my grandmother when I first got married over 20 years ago. It is very rich and I still can't stay out of it until it is gone. Since you can make this in different size pans the cook time is estimated and prep time includes cooling and frosting. I like to make it in a half size steamtable aluminum pan to take for gatherings or picnics.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°.
- Grease cake pans (2 OR 3- 8 inch or 2- 9 inch) with crisco.
- Use two or three tablespoons of cake mix to dust the greased cake pans.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix and gelatin and salt.
- Add oil and start mixer, slowly adding strawberries then the eggs 1 at a time and mix until well blended.
- Divide cake mix equally between two or three cake pans.
- Quickly place cake pans in the oven and immediately reduce heat to 350º.
- Follow cooking chart on cake mix box for pan size you choose, checking at shortest cooking time and watching carefully to prevent scorching.
- Cool in pan, on wire rack for 15 minutes.
- Remove from pan.
- I like to place the layers on wax or parchment paper or paper towels for easier handling to prevent cracking.
- For frosting: Mix butter on low speed for 1 or 2 minutes.
- Add 1/2 the sugar and mix then the remaining sugar, strawberries and a dash of salt to the butter and mix until well blended.
- About 4 minutes.
- When cake is completely cool, place one layer on cake plate and put a thin layer of frosting on top.
- Place the second layer on the first and put a thin layer of frosting on it.
- Top with the third layer and frost top and sides with remaining frosting.
- If you only make two layers use a thicker layer of frosting between the two layers.
- Allow cake to sit for at least four to six hours before serving.
- Overnight is much better.
