Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
18 Oreo cookies, crushed
Whole strawberries for topping (optional)
Melted white chocolate or cream cheese glaze (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch round cake pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.
3. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
4. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
5. Toss strawberries with lemon juice and optional sugar. Let sit for 10–15 minutes.
6. Whip chilled cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
7. Crush Oreos in a food processor or zip-top bag to desired texture. Set aside.
8. Slice cooled cake into two layers. Spread whipped cream, strawberries, and Oreo crumble between layers.
9. Top with more whipped cream, strawberries, and Oreo crumbs. Optionally drizzle with melted white chocolate or glaze.
10. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving to allow layers to set.
Notes
Use cold mixing equipment for the whipped cream—it helps stabilize it faster.
For more flavor, macerate the strawberries in sugar and lemon juice.
If short on time, substitute with store-bought cake and whipped topping.
