CHOCOLATE-COVERED STRAWBERRY CAKE

This cake is Awesome! I got the recipe from my niece Laura Jean who had made it for Christmas. She said that everyone loved it, and she is right. It is the most moist cake I have every had. One tip that she gave me is to bake the cake ahead of time (if you can) and put it in the freezer, since the recipe calls for splitting the cake layers. This can easily be done then with a large serated knife. Be sure to make extra Dipped Strawberries if your kids are around to help!

Tips:

  • To make sure your cake is moist, be sure to use ripe strawberries. You can also add a little bit of sour cream or buttermilk to the batter.
  • If you don't have a double boiler, you can melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Just be sure to stir it every 30 seconds or so to prevent it from overheating.
  • To make the chocolate ganache, be sure to use heavy cream. This will help it to be thick and creamy.
  • If you want your cake to be extra special, you can decorate it with fresh strawberries, whipped cream, or even chocolate shavings.
