Strawberry Cake With Cream Cheese Icing


Want to take that basic strawberry cake mix to the next level?  

It's actually quite easy.  People won't realize you used a cake mix -- and you don't have to tell them!

This is my basic strawberry cake - with fresh strawberries added for an extra strawberry delight!


Take your regular strawberry cake mix and make it by the directions on the back of the box.  Before you pour it in the pan, add 1 - 1 1/2 cups of fresh strawberries cut rather thin.  How easy is that?!

This is what gives it an extra pizzazz of strawberry yumness.  (I know that isn't a word, but it fits rather nicely here.)

Basic cream cheese frosting

1/2 cups butter - room temperature
6 oz cream cheese
2 tablespoons vanilla
2 cups powder sugar

Beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until smooth - about 3 minutes.
Beat in vanilla and powder sugar slowly.
You can add more powder sugar to get the consistency you want.
