Look what I made!


Ingredients:
3 pints fresh strawberries
1/2 cup 2tbs white sugar
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter
1 egg
2/3 cup milk
2 cups whipped heavy cream
Directions:
Slice the strawberries and toss them with 1/2 cup of white sugar, then set aside.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease and flour one 8 inch round cake pan.
In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, 2 tablespoons white sugar and the salt. With a pastry blender cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center and add the beaten egg and milk. Stir until just combined. Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 425 degrees F for about 15 or until golden brown. Let cool partially in pan on wire rack.
Slice partially cooled cake in half, making two layers. Place half of the strawberries on one layer and top with the other layer. Top with remaining strawberries and cover with the whipped cream. To sweeten whip cream, add sugar, while stirring.
ENJOY!! (this was not my recipe)
