STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE

Strawberry shortcake has been one of my all time favorite desserts for as long as I can remember. Then again is there anyone who couldn’t love that?

Strawberries are our absolute FAV during the Summer Season. And since they go perfect with baking. I just had to share my strwberry shortcake recipe.

This Strawberry shortcake has three layers of the fluffiest vanilla cake you will ever taste, this cake is filled with whipped strawberry cream, that just melt in your mouth and taste delicious and it is filled with sliced strawberries, it is absolutely heavenly and the perfect summer cake.

Ingredients:

Buttercream icing

1/2 lb fresh strawberries, cleaned and halved

Whites of 11 eggs, room temperature

1 cup granulated white sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/8 cups confectioner’s sugar, sifted

1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar

1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted

1/4 teaspoon salt

Procedure:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. In a mixing bowl, combine egg whites, cream of tartar, vanilla extract, and salt. Beat using an electric mixer.

3. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue beating until soft peak forms (stiff). Set aside.

4. In a separate bowl, combine flour and confectioner’s sugar and mix well.

5. Fold-in the flour and sugar mixture with the egg white mixture.

6. Transfer to a tube pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until it passes the toothpick test.

7. Remove from the oven and turn the pan upside down. This will prevent the cake from deflating.

8. Let cool and transfer to a serving plate.

9. Top lightly with buttercream icing and fresh strawberries.

10. Serve. Share and enjoy!
