Ingredients

Scale

Cake (for 2 layers):

  • 1 box white cake mix
  • 1 (3 oz) box strawberry Jell-O
  • ⅔ cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries (thawed, with the juice)

Frosting (for 2 layers):

  • 1 (16 oz) box confectioners’ sugar
  • 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, softened
  • ½ cup frozen strawberries, thawed

Instructions

For the Cake:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two 9-inch cake pans (or three 8-inch pans) with wax paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the white cake mix and strawberry Jell-O mix.
  3. Add the vegetable oil, beaten eggs, thawed strawberries, and strawberry juice to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
  4. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Remove from the oven and allow the cake layers to cool completely on a wire rack.

For the Frosting:

  1. In a medium bowl, beat together the confectioners’ sugar, softened butter, and thawed strawberries until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Once the cake layers are completely cooled, frost the cake as desired.

Notes

  • For a four-layer cake, double the ingredients and use four 9-inch or 8-inch pans.
  • Ensure the cake layers are completely cooled before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Fresh strawberries can be used instead of frozen; adjust the sugar in the frosting if the strawberries are particularly sweet.
