I also bought a jam in case I needed it in between the layers as well as strawberries. Too sweet even for me who is a sugar junkie. I don’t mind the cake being a mix but despise the frosting you can buy pre made. I have never in life baked a cake from scratch. I bought 3 packes of strawberries and of course I have two cake mixes. I have eggs, whipping cream, one cream cheese, strawberries, Greek vanilla yogurt, and strawberries. Boy, I do envy you people that can go into your refrigerators and come up with such wonderful meals with nothing. I’m disabled so I can’t get out to the store. I have no creativity when it comes to the kitchen and if anyone can guide me thru making this cake taste good with what I have. Is there anyway I can use the yogurt in the cake mix for moisture or would I be able to use in icing to make iy tarsier. My 3 year old grandson wanted to make for his daddy. Cover the whole cake with remaining cream. Place the second cake layer on top and cover with remaining berries & their juice.Layer half the berries & juices on bottom cake & cover with whipped cream.While cake is baking, put strawberries and sugar into a large bowl, stirring occasionally, mashing a little.Cool 10 minutes and remove from pans to cooling rack.On low speed, alternate adding flour mixture & buttermilk mixture, ending with the flour.Beat in egg whites one at a time - takes about a minute.Beat butter & sugar in a large bowl for one minute.Combine buttermilk & vanilla & set aside.Sift dry ingredients onto wax paper & set aside.Line bottoms with parchment paper & grease paper. 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream (*see note below).
