- 1 box of white cake mix
- 1 cup of pureed fresh strawberries
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- A pinch of salt
For the strawberry cream cheese frosting:
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup pureed strawberries
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Prepare the Cake Batter
In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, pureed strawberries, eggs, vegetable oil, sour cream, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Beat the mixture with an electric mixer for about 2 minutes until it’s smooth and combined.
Make the Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting
While the cake is cooling, beat the softened cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl until smooth and creamy. Add in the pureed strawberries and vanilla extract, and then slowly mix in the powdered sugar. Continue beating until the frosting reaches a fluffy consistency.
When making this strawberry sheet cake, I always recommend using the freshest strawberries possible for the best flavor.
The sweetness and natural fragrance of fresh strawberries really elevate the cake and make every bite a joy.
If strawberries are out of season, you can use frozen berries, but remember to thaw them properly and drain the liquid to prevent a soggy cake.
