I'm a bit behind on my reading & it's probably far too late for the mother looking for a good strawberry cake recipe, but this one is very popular in my house. As you can see from the note I've lightened it from the original recipe. Serves 12.
1 pkg white cake mix (2 layer)
1 Tbsp flour
1 pkg strawberry gelatin powder (4 serving)
1/4 C oil, *
1 C water, *
1/2 C frozen strawberries, thawed & mashed
2 eggs, *
3 oz butter, *
3 3/4 C icing sugar
1/2 C frozen strawberries, thawed & mashed
Blend cake mix, flour, & gelatin.
Add oil, water, and strawberries.
Beat in each egg. Bake in G&F 9"pans @350 for 25 - 30 minutes.
Combine icing ingredients. Spread on cooled cake.
*Note: original recipe called for 3/4 C oil, 1/2 C water, 4 eggs, and 1/2 C butter
