CHEESE FROSTING

Cake:

1 pkg. plain white cake mix
1 pkg. strawberry gelatin
1 cup mashed strawberries with juice
1 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup whole milk
4 large eggs

Preheat oven to 350°F degrees.

Lightly grease three 9-inch round pans. Set pans aside.

Place cake mix, strawberry gelatin, mashed strawberries, oil, milk, and eggs in large mixing bowl and beat on low speed for 1 minute. Strawberries should be well-blended.

Cream Cheese Frosting:

1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
3 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup mashed strawberries (drained)

Combine cream cheese and butter and mix on low speed for a minute. Add sugar and strawberries. Blend frosting on low until sugar is incorporated.

Optional: Place fresh strawberries on top of frosting for decoration.

This is very good cake and frosting!! But it does have lots of sugar but best cake I have ever tasted. I would suggest you make a different type of frosting if your not a strawberry lover!!

This cake is amazing! I made it for my son's 5th birthday because he wanted a strawberry cake. It was very very good. I had trouble with icing being very runny. Had to keep it in the refrigerator but the taste was great! I am going to try this again since my kids are complaining that the cake is GONE.. haha. I am going to try and use fresh strawberries in the icing so it is more thick.

This is one of the best strawberry cakes I've tasted. I like how you took the box cake and made it into a delicious, moist, creamy cake. I made it for my birthday and it was a Big Big Hit!

Kim Cantrell (Michigan) says:

This cake is simple and the best cake i've ever had! I made three of these cakes in one and half weeks! I took this cake to a family Christmas and one of my sister in laws said I didn't know you knew how to cook like this! Everyone loved the cake and it went quickly. This is a must try cake! My second cake I used too much mashed strawberries for the frosting and it was a bit runny - use 3/4 cups just like it says and make sure to mix cream cheese and butter first!

I really appreciate the comments as I've not made the cake yet. My concern was fresh vs frozen strawberries. With everyone's comments, I now know what not to do. Perfect for Easter dinner.
