4 eggs (at room temperature)
2-¾ cups sifted cake flour
2-½ teaspoons baking powder
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
½ cup strawberry puree made from frozen sweetened strawberries

2.) Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

3.) In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and dry strawberry gelatin until light and fluffy.

4.) Beat in eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each.

5.) Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the batter alternately with the milk.

6.) Blend in the vanilla extract and strawberry puree.

7.) Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.

8.) Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a small knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

When I made this cake for the first time "years ago". I made, frosted, and decorated two 8-inch round cakes, so I could share one of the frosted layered cake with my daughter. I also used a strawberry frosting, and place a few fresh strawberries on top. I'm also posting a photo of the cake served on a plate.
