How to Make Big Red Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- In a small bowl, gently mash the strawberries for the compote. Stir in the sugar and cornstarch until combined.
- Divide the cake batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Spoon spoonfuls of the strawberry compote over the batter in each pan, swirling gently with a knife or toothpick to create a marbled effect.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, frost the cake with your favorite frosting (recipe not included). Decorate the top with fresh strawberries for an extra touch of elegance.
