Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup Strawberries
• 1 cup Sugar
• 1 cup Butter
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 1 cup Whipped cream
• 2 tablespoon Powdered sugar
• 8 leaves Fresh mint leaves

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a round cake pan.
2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just blended.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Meanwhile, prepare the strawberry shot by blending the strawberries and powdered sugar until smooth.
7. Once the cake has cooled, use a fork to poke holes all over the top. Pour the strawberry shot over the cake, allowing it to soak in.
8. In a separate bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the cake.
9. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
