Como fazer English North Country Strawberries And Cream Courting Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the strawberry filling: Hull and roughly chop the strawberries. In a saucepan, combine the strawberries, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens.
  9. Remove from heat and stir in the cream cheese until smooth.
  10. Once the cakes are completely cool, level the tops if necessary. Place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand.
  11. Spread half of the strawberry filling over the first layer. Top with the second cake layer and the remaining filling.
  12. Top with the final cake layer.
  13. Whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Frost the entire cake with the whipped cream.
  14. Garnish with the reserved fresh strawberries.
