Strawberry swirl cake


I am by NO means a professional baker, but I LOVE to try :) Here is a cake I made for our special visitors this weekend. (and of course for myself too since Strawberry is my absolute favorite!!!) I was so happy to find this EASY recipe in a Kraft Foods magazine. If you have never seen all the Kraft has to offer you should definitely check them out. www.kraftfoods.com

Ingredients:

1 package of white cake mix

1 package of Jello Strawberry Gelatin

2/3 cup sour cream

2/3 cup powdered sugar

24 ounces of Cool Whip, thawed

1 container of strawberries- sliced

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease 2 (8 inch) cake pans. Prepare cake batter as directed on package. Pour half of the batter in a bowl. Add dry gelatin mix; stir until well blended
  2. Spoon half of the white batter and half of the pink batter side by side in the pans
  3. Swirl batters together lightly (this will give a marble look). Bake 30 minutes and then cool 30 minutes in pans. Remove to wire racks and let cool completely.
  4. Mix sour cream and powdered sugar in a medium bowl until well blended. Gently stir in whipped cream.
  5. Place one of the cake layers on serving plate; spread top with whipped topping and top with strawberry slices.
Top with the remaining cake layer and spread remaining whipped topping over entire cake. Finish it off with strawberries on top. Refrigerate until served
