Ingredients

Scale

Strawberries

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

Whipped Cream

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Sponge Cake Layers

  • 2 pre-made sponge cake layers (8-inch round)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the whipped cream: In a chilled mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, ensuring the cream is light and fluffy.
  2. Slice the strawberries: Wash and hull the fresh strawberries. Slice them evenly to create uniform pieces that will stack nicely in the layers.
  3. Layer the cake: Place one sponge cake layer on your serving plate. Spread a generous layer of whipped cream over the sponge, then evenly distribute half of the sliced strawberries on top of the cream.
  4. Add the second layer: Gently place the second sponge cake layer over the strawberries. Repeat by spreading the remaining whipped cream over the top and decorating with the remaining sliced strawberries.
  5. Chill the cake: Cover the assembled cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the whipped cream to set properly.
  6. Serve: Once chilled, slice and serve the cake cold for a refreshing and delicious dessert.

Notes

  • You can substitute strawberries with other fresh berries like raspberries or blueberries.
  • Use chilled bowls and beaters for whipping the cream to achieve the best texture.
  • Store leftover cake covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for optimal freshness.
  • For an extra touch, dust the top with powdered sugar or garnish with fresh mint leaves.
