Directions Beautiful Strawberry Cream Cake
Directions
-
Place egg whites in a large mixing bowl, let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Beat yolks in bowl until slightly thickened. Gradually add 3/4 cup white sugar, beating until thick and lemon-colored. Beat in lemon juice, vegetable oil, and water.
Mix flour and salt in a bowl, add to yolk mixture and stir to incorporate into batter.
Beat egg whites using an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 3/4 cup white sugar, 1 tablespoon at at time, beating on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form. Fold 1/4 of the egg whites into batter, then fold in remaining whites. Gently spoon batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan and smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven until cake springs back when lightly touched, 35 to 40 minutes. Immediately invert pan onto a plate, let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Beat heavy cream in a large mixing bowl until it begins to thicken. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract, beat whipped cream until stiff peaks form.
Run a knife around the sides and center tube of the pan, remove cake and slice into 3 horizontal layers. Place bottom layer on a serving plate, top with about 1/4 of the whipped cream and 1/2 of the sliced strawberries, repeat with middle layer. Place top layer on cake, spread remaining whipped cream over top and sides of cake. Arrange halved strawberries on top of cake.
