How To Make strawberry cake from scratch

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9 inch round cake pans.

Step 2

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and dry strawberry gelatin until light and fluffy.
Step 3

Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.
Step 4

Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the batter alternately with the milk.
Step 5

Blend in vanilla and strawberry puree.
Step 6

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
Step 7

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a small knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Step 8

Allow cakes to cool in their pans over a wire rack for at least 10 minutes, before tapping out to cool completely.
