The Ingredients
For the cake:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped
For the cream cheese icing:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
The Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt cake pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in the sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt cake pan and smooth out the top with a spatula. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cake is cooling, make the cream cheese icing. In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt, and beat until well combined.
Once the cake has cooled completely, spread the cream cheese icing over the top and sides of the cake. Serve and enjoy!
Tips For Making The Perfect Strawberry Bundt Cake With Cream Cheese Icing

- Allow the cake to cool completely before adding the cream cheese icing. If the cake is still warm, the icing will melt and become runny.
