How to Make Strawberry Cream Dream Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Bake a 9-inch round cake (your favorite recipe or store-bought). Let it cool completely.
  3. Once cool, cut a 1-inch thick slice from the top of the cake and set aside.
  4. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a 1-inch wide ring around the outside of the cake, and another 1-inch wide ring inside that, leaving a 1-inch thick cake wall.
  5. Gently remove the center cake, leaving a 1-inch base at the bottom.
  6. Reserve the removed cake pieces.
  7. In a large mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until fluffy.
  8. Gradually add 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk, beating until smooth and creamy.
  9. Stir in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and a few drops of red food coloring (optional). Mix well.
  10. Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped cream.
  11. Reserve two-thirds of the cream cheese mixture and refrigerate.
  12. In a separate bowl, gently mix the remaining one-third of the cream cheese mixture with 1 cup of fresh strawberries (hulled and sliced) and the reserved cake pieces.
  13. Fill the center cavity of the cake with the strawberry mixture.
  14. Replace the 1-inch thick cake slice on top.
  15. Frost the entire cake with the reserved whipped cream mixture.
  16. Garnish with fresh strawberries, if desired.
  17. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or until set.
