Strawberries And Cream Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/Fan 160°C/gas 4. Grease the two cake tins and set aside.
• Pour the eggs, butter, sugar, flour and baking powder into a big bowl & beat together until thoroughly combined. Divide the mixture evenly between the two tins and place in the oven for around 20-25 minutes.
• Whilst the cakes are baking, start by slicing your strawberries (top downwards) - into about 4-5 slices per strawberry and then set aside. Leave 1 or 2 whole strawberries & about 6-8 good slices for the topping.
• In a clean glass or metal bowl, pour the cream and and whisk on low speed for about 30 seconds before increasing to medium speed until the cream begins to form stiff peaks (this should take a couple of minutes). Stop as soon as the peaks are formed, otherwise you will over-whisk.
• When the cakes are ready, transfer onto a cooling rack and using a knife/cake leveller, slice the rounded tops off to create a smooth surface. Allow to completely cool before assembling.
• In a new bowl, add the milk, butter, half the icing sugar, strawberry essence and colouring and whisk on medium speed until combined. Gradually add the remaining icing sugar until it combines to create a light and fluffy pink buttercream.
• Next, spread a generous layer of jam on the base of one cake. Add the sliced stawberries in a circular pattern and then top with just over half the whipped cream (save the rest) to create a thick inner layer. Place the second cake on top and carefully spread the icing on top
• Finally, add the remaining cream to a piping bag with an izing nozzle or ziplock bag with the end snipped off & pipe 6-8 cream 'nests' around the edges. Add a sliced strawberry to the top of each. Add a final whole strawberry in the middle - there are lots of online video tutorials for creating strawberry rose shapes! Dust with icing sugar & serve on the day.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter bottom of an 8-inch round cake pan, and line with parchment paper. Butter and flour paper and sides. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat butter and 1/2 cup sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs and yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. With mixer on low, alternately add flour mixture in 3 parts and milk in 2, beginning and ending with flour mixture; mix just until combined. Spread batter in prepared pan.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes; invert onto a wire rack to cool completely. Using a serrated knife, split cake in half horizontally; place bottom half, cut side up, on a serving plate.
• Make topping: In a large bowl, combine strawberries and 1/4 cup sugar; set aside. Place 2 tablespoons cold water in a small saucepan, and sprinkle with gelatin; let soften 5 minutes. Place saucepan over very low heat, and stir until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat; let cool.
• Using an electric mixer, beat cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a large bowl until very soft peaks form. Continue to beat, and gradually add gelatin mixture; beat until soft peaks form.
• Arrange half of strawberries over bottom cake layer; top with half of whipped cream, leaving a 1-inch border. Cover with top half of cake, cut side down. Top cake with remaining whipped cream, leaving a 1-inch border. Refrigerate cake and remaining strawberries separately, at least 1 hour (or up to 1 day). Just before serving, spoon strawberries over cake.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven and prepare the cake mix according to the package directions, then bake in two 9-inch round cake pans. Remove from pans and cool completely, then cut each layer in half horizontally, making 4 layers.
• Place on cake layer on a large serving plate. Brush with pureed strawberries and spread on a layer of whipped topping. Place another cake layer over that and repeat until all cake, strawberry puree and whipped topping are used. Garnish with fresh strawberries slices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour three 9 inch round cake pans.
• In a large bowl, beat sugar, gelatin and butter until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition. Mix flour and baking powder, and beat alternately with the milk into the sugar mixture. Fold in 1 teaspoon vanilla and pureed strawberries. Divide equally into three 9 inch round cake pans.
• Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until toothpick inserted into cake comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the pans, then remove from pans and cool completely.
• To make the filling: Beat whipping cream, 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla on high until stiff. Fill each layer with 1/3 of the whipped cream and 3/4 cup sliced strawberries.
• To make the frosting: Beat the margarine, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Spread over the sides of the cake, and pipe an edge of frosting around the top of the cake.
• Spread remaining whipped cream on cake top. Top with quartered strawberries.

Steps:

• Line the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan with parchment and freeze for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the strawberry ice cream into pieces and beat in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment on low speed until smooth and spreadable but still frozen, about 30 seconds.
• Sprinkle 1 cup of crushed graham crackers in the bottom of the chilled pan. Spread the softened strawberry ice cream over the crumbs and tap the pan on the counter several times to remove any air pockets. Sprinkle with another 1 cup graham cracker crumbs and pat into an even layer. Spread with the strawberry jam. Freeze the cake until firm, 1 to 2 hours.
• Cut the chocolate-chip ice cream into pieces and beat in the mixer to soften. Spread on top of the strawberry jam layer, then sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup graham cracker crumbs. Freeze until firm, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Frost the cake: Rub the side of the springform pan with a warm kitchen towel to loosen. Remove the ring; invert or slide the cake onto a platter and freeze 15 minutes. Beat the heavy cream with the confectioners' sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Spread over the top and side of the cake. Top with sliced strawberries and graham cracker crumbs. Freeze until firm, at least 3 hours or overnight.

Steps:

• Prepare cake batter and bake as directed on package for 13x9-inch pan. Cool completely.
• Pierce cake with wooden skewer or chopstick at 1/2-inch intervals. Add boiling water to gelatin mix in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in cold water; pour over cake.
• Refrigerate 3 hours.
• Beat pudding mix and milk in large bowl with whisk 2 min. Fold in COOL WHIP.
• Spread pudding mixture onto top of cake. Top with strawberries.
• Refrigerate 1 hour.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl cream the sugar and stork until the mixture is pale in colour.
• Next, one at a time mix in the the three eggs.
• Sieve half of the flour into the mixture and fold in using a metal spoon. Once the flour has been folded in sieve the remaining flour and fold into the mixture.
• In a small cup combine the baking soda, baking powder and white vinegar so that it fizzes then pour and stir into the mixture.
• Split the mixture between two sandwich tins and bake for 30-35 minutes in the oven at 130c until golden in colour and the sponge springs back when lightly tapped.
• Allow the cakes to cool slightly and then remove from the tins and place on a rack to cool completely.
• Once the cakes have cooled you can begin to make the filling by whipping the cream until it holds it shape.
• Position one of the cakes on a board or cake stand and smother the top with 3/4 of the whipped cream.
• Slice the strawberries and arrange them on top of the cream in a circular fashion and place the remaining cream on top of the strawberries.
• Next sandwich the two cakes together and mix up the icing sugar using a little warm water. Drizzle the icing over the top of the cake and arrange any remaining strawberries on top to finish.

Steps:

• Add the angel food cake mix and yellow cake mix to a jar. Place a cupcake liner over the cake mix and add the freeze-dried strawberries. Cover with the lid.
• Store in the pantry for up to 3 months.
• When ready to eat, remove the lid and cupcake liner with the strawberries from the jar. Pour the water into the dry cake mix. Mix thoroughly, making sure to scrape the dry mix from the bottom of the jar.
• Microwave for 20 seconds.
• Pour the freeze-dried strawberries into the jar and gently stir to distribute throughout, being careful not to push all of the strawberries to the bottom.
• Microwave for another 40 seconds, until cooked through.
• Top with whipped cream and freeze-dried strawberries, if desired.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• First, let the strawberries and Cool Whip rest on the counter. The strawberries will mix with the Jell-o better if they're not rock hard, and the Cool Whip will incorporate better if it's a little soft.
• Slice the angel food cake into 1/2 to 1-inch pieces using a serrated knife, and spread half of the angel food cake pieces on the bottom of the 9×13 inch dish. (Or a fun glass dish like a trifle bowl.)
• Bring two cups of water to a boil. In a large mixing bowl, combine the water and Jell-o powder. Stir until fully combined.
• Then, add the frozen strawberries and stir, breaking up the chunks until they have melted. Fold the Cool Whip a few dollops at a time into the strawberry mixture, stirring gently to combine without deflating the dessert. Again, you can leave it a little less than uniformly combined, but you want it well-mixed.
• Spread half the mixture over the cake. Add the remaining cake, then cover with the remaining mix. Spread to ensure the cake is fully covered.
• Alternatively, you can combine all the cake and mix in a large bowl. You may prefer this method if you're serving the dessert in a trifle or glass bowl.
• Chill in the fridge four hours or overnight. If the cake feels wet or jiggles, it's not set.
• To glam it up, you can cover the chilled cake with Cool Whip, or garnish or decorate the top with sliced strawberries.

Steps:

• Crumble the cake into a 9x13 inch dish.
• Beat the cream cheese and sugar in a medium bowl until light and fluffy. Fold in whipped topping. Mash the cake down with your hands and spread the cream cheese mixture over the cake.
• In a bowl, combine strawberries and glaze until strawberries are evenly coated. Spread over cream cheese layer. Chill until serving.

Steps:

• Fill a small saucepan with about 1 inch of water and set over medium heat until the water steams.
• Meanwhile, coarsely chop about a quarter of the strawberries and combine in a medium heatproof bowl with the sugar. Cover the bowl tightly and set it over the saucepan. Reduce the heat if necessary to keep the water just below a simmer and allow the berries to sit, swirling the bowl once or twice to dissolve any stubborn sugar clumps, until they've released all their juices, are mushy, and swim in a translucent red liquid, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat, uncover and strain through a fine-mesh strainer. (You should have 1/2 to 3/4 cup of strawberry syrup.) The mushy berries will have given off their color and flavor, and even though you won't use them in the cake, they're still tasty. Reserve the berries for spooning over pancakes or yogurt.
• In a separate medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, crème fraîche and salt. Whisk the mixture vigorously by hand, or beat with a hand mixer on medium-high, until thick, light and holding a medium peak. Chill the bowl of whipped cream. Thinly slice the remaining raw strawberries lengthwise.
• Invert the sponge cake on a flat serving plate or cake stand. Holding a long serrated knife horizontally and parallel to the work surface, use it to lightly score all around the side of the cake at the midway point. Then, using long, even strokes and still holding the knife parallel to the surface, slice clean through the cake, using the score marks as a guide, to cut it into two even layers. Set the top layer aside.
• Use a pastry brush to dab several tablespoons of the strawberry syrup across the bottom layer, lightly soaking the entire surface. Pull the bowl of cream from the refrigerator and dollop about half of it across the soaked layer, then spread in an even layer all the way to the edges. Arrange half of the sliced strawberries on top of the cream, then place the second cake layer on top of the first, cut side up. Lightly soak the top layer of cake with the strawberry syrup, reserving any remaining syrup for serving. Spread the remaining cream on top of the cake, then pile the remaining sliced strawberries over top. (If not serving immediately, cover loosely and refrigerate until ready to serve.)
• Slice the cake with a serrated knife and serve. Drizzle the slices with any remaining strawberry syrup. The cake is best served the day it's made, but will keep, covered and chilled, for up to 3 days.
