This is so yummy! Dh loves it! And, it is perfect for the month of February, pink cake for Valentine's Day. This would be totally cute if done in a two layer cake, with the layers shaped as a heart...
Strawberry Cake
1/2 cup hot water
1 small pkg strawberry Jello
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup fresh/frozen strawberries ***thaw and drain VERY well if using frozen.
1 pkg yellow cake mix
4 eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour cake pan. Mix ingredients in order they are listed, except for the eggs. Mix them well in a stand mixer until very well mixed. Mix in one egg at a time and beat well. Pour into cake pan and bake for 40 minutes or until done.
Icing:
1 box powdered sugar
1/2 cup strawberries, fresh or frozen *** if frozen, drain and thaw well, if not drained well, you will end up using a ton of powdered sugar
1/2 stick of melted butter
Mix well and add enough powdered sugar until nice and thick. Spread on cake. Enjoy!

That is so cute. I think a strawberry shortcake doll would go perfect as a gift with that.
Thanx for sharing the recipe and for stopping by.
This same recipe has been in my family for years.....it's a wonderful cake!!!
Does this cake require refridgeration?
Thanks for the awesome recipe!

Lisa,
i never do unless we want it cold. it is very good cold from the icebox, but since the eggs are cooked, i don't feel that it "has" to be.
I made this Sunday.. OH MY GOSH!!!!! Wonderful!!!!
Sooo my request is do you have a really good home-made icing recipe, white icing, for a chocolate cake?!? lol
Thanks again, and I've really enjoyed your blogs!!
Lisa
p.s. I did not refridgerate and it was fine!
