——————–

FOR THE CAKE

– 2/3 cup sugar
– 2 cups flour
– 3 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/3 cup (5 1/3 tablespoons) butter, room temperature
– 1 egg
– 1 cup milk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla

FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM

– 1 1/2 cups whipping cream
– 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
– 3 tablespoons sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla
– 2 tablespoons orange zest
– 2 cups strawberries, cleaned and hulled

FOR THE SHORTCAKE

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine sugar, flour, and baking powder.

With the mixer running on medium-low, add butter one tablespoon at a time. Mix until the ingredients are a sandy texture.

In a measuring cup or bowl, mix the egg, milk, and vanilla.

With the mixer running, add milk mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until no dry streaks remain.

Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and evenly distribute the batter between pans. Bake in preheated oven for 20-30 minutes until just slightly golden and a wooden skewer inserted comes out clean.

Remove from oven and cool in pans for 10 minutes. Then invert onto a cooling rack and cool until completely cooled.

While cooling, prepare the whipped cream.

FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM

Whip cream cheese until light and fluffy.

Add whipping cream, sugar, vanilla, and zest.

Whip until the cream reaches stiff peaks.

TO ASSEMBLE THE CAKE

Place one cooled cake on the plate. Top with approximately one cup of whipped cream mixture.

Spread evenly and top with one layer of sliced strawberries.

Top with second cake round, pressing slightly to adhere. Then add another cup of cream mixture.

Finish with more berries. On this final layer, take more time to assemble as this is the final presentation.

  3. I've used this recipe so many times and its always a huge a hit! Just wondering, does it matter what type of milk is used for the wet ingredients?

  10. This is absolutely beautiful!!🍓 Thank you for sharing! Beautiful presentation!!🍓 I can't wait to try this! 🍓💗🍰

  11. Followed the recipe EXACTLY, but the batter was quite runny. The recipe says 2cps of flour but to get that biscuit type batter should there be more flour.

  12. This is great! I’d just add some homemade strawberry filling on top for that extra kick of sweet & wet

  13. I like the idea of using cream cheese to stabilise the cream, instead of cornflour for example.
