Ingredients
To make this delicious strawberry cake, you'll need the following ingredients:

- 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup of water
- 1 package of strawberry Jell-O
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 1/2 cup of butter, softened
- 4 cups of powdered sugar
Make sure to have all of these ingredients on hand before you start baking.
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the white cake mix, chopped fresh strawberries, vegetable oil, eggs, water, and strawberry Jell-O until well combined.
3. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
4. While the cakes are baking, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, mix together the milk, softened butter, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
5. Once the cakes are finished baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool in their pans for 10 minutes. Then, remove the cakes from the pans and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
6. Once the cakes have cooled, place one of the cakes on a cake stand or plate. Spread a layer of frosting on top of the cake. Then, place the second cake on top and frost the entire cake.
7. Decorate the cake with fresh strawberries and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Tips
- Make sure to let the cakes cool completely before frosting them. Otherwise, the frosting will melt and slide off the cake.

- You can also add a few drops of red food coloring to the cake batter to make the cake a brighter shade of pink.
