Yellow Cake With Strawberry Filling and Chocolate Sour Cream Frosting
Serves 12| Hands-On Time: 45m| Total Time: 3hr 00m
Ingredients
a.. 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for
the pans
b.. 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled, plus more for the
pans
c.. 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
d.. 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
e.. 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
f.. 1 1/2 cups sugar
g.. 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
h.. 3 large eggs, at room temperature
i.. 1 cup whole milk
j.. 1 recipe Fresh Strawberry Filling
k.. 1 recipe Chocolate Sour Cream Frosting
l.. 1 quart strawberries, thinly sliced
m.. 1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam, warmed
Directions
1.. Heat oven to 350°F. Butter two 8- or 9-inch round cake pans, line the
bottoms with parchment, butter again, and dust with flour, tapping out the
excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda,
and salt; set aside.
2.. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar on medium-high until
fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla, then the eggs one at a time,
scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
3.. Reduce mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture in 3 additions and the
milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix just
until combined (do not overmix).
4.. Transfer the batter to the prepared pans and bake until a toothpick
inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes for 8-inch pans and 22
to 25 minutes for 9-inch pans. Cool the cakes in the pans for 15 minutes, then
turn out onto racks to cool completely.
5.. Transfer one of the cooled cakes to a plate and spread with 1 to 1½ cups
of the filling. Top with the remaining cake and refrigerate to set, 30 minutes.
Spread the top and sides with the frosting.
6.. Starting from the outside perimeter, place a ring of the sliced
strawberries around the cake, points facing out. Continue layering concentric
rings around the cake until you reach the center. Carefully brush with the jam.
