Directions
1. Puree strawberries in food processor then add
to a small saucepan with sugar and lemon juice and place over medium low heat.
Reduce by about half, stirring often, 25 minutes. You should have about 1
½ cup of strawberry compote. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
2. Preheat oven to 350° and grease and line two
8” round cake pans. In a large bowl whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking
powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In another large bowl, with a hand mixer, beat
together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time,
beating well after each addition. Add vanilla and strawberry compote and beat
until fully incorporated then add milk. Add dry ingredients mixing until just
combined. (Add pink food coloring to batter if you desire a really pink cake!)
4. Divide batter evenly into prepared pans and
bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, 25 minutes.
Let cakes cool for 15 minutes then invert onto a cooling rack to cool
completely.
5. Make frosting: In a large bowl, with a hand
mixer, beat cream cheese and butter until no lumps remain then beat in
strawberry compote. Add powdered sugar and beat until well incorporated.
Add in heavy cream, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Add more heavy cream as
necessary to reach your desired consistency.
