Strawberry Flavoured Cake Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups granulated sugar

1 (3oz) package strawberry flavoured Jelly or Jello

1 cup butter, softened

4 eggs

2 ¾ cups cake flour or all purpose

2 ½ tsp baking powder

1 cup whole milk, room temperature

1 tbsp vanilla extract

½ cup strawberry puree or a bag (pot) frozen strawberries (thawed)

Method

1.     Preheat oven to 175C. Grease and flour cake pans.

2.     In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and dry jelly until everything is light and fluffy.

3.     Beat in eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each one added.

4.     Combine flour and baking powder and stir into the batter alternately with the milk. Blend in vanilla and strawberry puree. Divide the batter evenly in cake pans.

5.     Bake 25-30 minutes or until an inserted knife comes out clean.

6.     Allow cakes to cool in pans on wire racks for at least 10 minutes before tapping out to cool completely. (If making a larger cake, cool in pans for longer).

Great recipe and always a favourite.
