A Box Cake With Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting

1. Prepare the Cake Batter

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, until the batter is smooth and well combined.

2. Bake the Cake

• Divide the cake batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

3. Make the Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting

• In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
• Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Stir in the strawberry preserves and vanilla extract until well combined.

4. Assemble the Cake

• Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of strawberry cream cheese frosting over the top.
• Top with the second cake layer. Spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake, using a spatula to create a smooth finish.

5. Garnish and Serve

• If desired, garnish the cake with fresh strawberries just before serving.
• Slice and serve the cake, and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors in every bite.
