What's Cooking: Strawberry Cake

Few weeks before Christmas, Tito Jonathan gave us more than 5 kilos of frozen strawberry halves. I then started searching for recipes of strawberry cake, until I came across a recipe from one of my favorite Lifestyle Channel star, Ree Drummond. Here is the recipe of the Strawberry Sponge Cake and the Whipped Cream Icing.

Strawberry Sponge Cake

• 1 1/2 C Flour
• 3 Tbsp. Cornstarch
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 9 Tbsp. Unsalted butter, softened 
• 1 1/2 C Sugar
• 3 Eggs
• 1/2 C Sour Cream
• 1 tsp. Vanilla

Whipped Cream Icing

• 1/2 pound Cream Cheese
• 2 sticks Unsalted Butter
• 1 1/2 pound Powdered Sugar
• 1 tsp. Vanilla
• 1 pound Strawberry

I baked the sponge cake before we went to our Christmas eve Church service. And after the Church service, Miya & I started working on the icing. I added sugar in the strawberry halves I put around the cake to add a little sweetness.
