Ingredients

Scale

Butter

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

Sugar

  • 2 cups granulated sugar

Eggs

  • 4 large eggs

Flour

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

Baking Powder

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

Milk

  • 1 cup milk

Fresh Strawberries

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cake bakes evenly and rises perfectly.
  2. Prepare Your Baking Pan: Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper. This will prevent the cake from sticking and make for easy removal.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This process incorporates air, which helps the cake rise.
  4. Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. This helps create a smooth batter and ensures even distribution of ingredients.
  5. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
  6. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in the fresh strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter for delicious bites in every slice.
  7. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool and Serve: Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents it from becoming soggy.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Strawberries: Fresh, ripe strawberries will provide the best flavor and texture for your cake.
  • Don’t Overmix: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix just until combined to keep the cake tender.
  • Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your butter, eggs, and milk are at room temperature for a smooth batter.
  • Test for Doneness: Use a toothpick to check if the cake is done; it should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
  • Let It Rest: Allow the cake to rest before serving to let the flavors meld and improve the texture.
