This week we went to pick strawberries with my Grandma, a tradition we’ve had for several years now. We use my kids as minions and end up coming home with quite a haul of berries! Every year I try to find a new way to use the strawberries. This year I’ve had a hankering for Butter Cake recently, so I decided to whip up a Strawberries & Cream Butter Cake and it was outrageously delicious! When you eat this rich dessert you’d think it took hours to prepare, but honestly it is so easy to make. The hardest part is slicing the berries, and that takes very little time at all.
Strawberries & Cream Butter Cake:
Layer 1 Ingredients:
1 Yellow Cake Mix
1 Egg
6 Tablespoons Butter, melted
Layer 2 Ingredients:
Sliced Strawberries (about 1-2 cups)
Top Layer Ingredients:
8 oz. Cream Cheese, softened
6 Tablespoons Butter, melted
2 Eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 cups Powdered Sugar
Preheat oven to 350˚ and spray a 9×13 cooking pan with cooking spray. Mix together the cake mix, one egg and 6 Tablespoons melted butter with a hand mixer. Using a spatula, pat this mixture into the bottom of the baking dish. Spread the strawberry slices in an even layer over this cake mixture. Mix together the cream cheese, another 6 Tablespoons of melted butter, 2 eggs, vanilla and powdered sugar until smooth. Carefully spread this cream cheese mixture over the strawberries and cake. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown on top and cake is set. Cool before serving.
