Description

Ingredients

• 2 layers of white cake
• 2 layers of red velvet cake
• 1 batch of cream cheese buttercream
• 2 cups of sliced strawberries

Directions

• I started by baking the 4 layers of cake : 2 layers of white cake (no almond extract) and 2 layers of red velvet cake (click the links above for the recipes). I used four 8 round Magic Line pansand divided each recipe in half into 2 pans. Bake at 325°F for ~35-40 minutes (or until a toothpick comes out clean!).
• While theyre baking, go ahead and make your cream cheese frosting and slice up your strawberries.
• When the cakes are cooled... youre ready to start assembling!
• I started with a layer of white cake (but started with red velvet would work too).
• Then spread on some cream cheese frosting...
• and top that with sliced strawberries!
• Next add a layer of red velvet cake.
• Them more cream cheese and more sliced strawberries:
• Repeat that whole process again - except leave the strawberries off the top!
• Frost the entire outside of the cake - then pipe an easy border and youre done! OH - I had trimmed my red velvet cakes a bit and I used the crumbs as garnish on top! :)
