Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)
  • 1 cup puréed strawberries
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla. Gradually mix wet ingredients into dry until just combined.
  3. Divide the batter into three bowls: one for chocolate (add melted chocolate), one for strawberry (fold in purée), and leave one as vanilla.
  4. Pour each batter into greased 9-inch round pans and bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow cooling on a rack.
  5. For the frosting, beat together cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
  6. Assemble by layering chocolate first on your serving plate, followed by frosting and then the strawberry layer; repeat with vanilla.
  7. Frost the top and sides of the cake; decorate as desired.
