Time 1h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups white sugar
1 ½ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
6 eggs, at room temperature, separated
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
3 ½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
4 ½ teaspoons baking powder
2 pinches salt, divided
1 ½ cups whole milk, at room temperature
½ cup chocolate-flavored milk powder (such as Nesquik®)
½ cup strawberry-flavored milk powder (such as Nesquik®)
9 drops red food coloring, or as desired
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup shortening
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
  • Combine sugar and butter in a bowl and cream using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides and blending for a total of 5 minutes. Add egg yolks slowly, 1 at a time, beating into creamed butter mixture. Beat in vanilla extract.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, and 1 pinch salt together in a separate bowl. Add to creamed sugar mixture in 3 batches, alternating with milk and blending after each addition. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and blend for 1 minute more; batter should be smooth and consistent. Separate batter evenly into 3 mixing bowls, about 2 1/2 cups in each.
  • Beat egg whites and remaining salt together in a bowl using a whip attachment until stiff peaks form.
  • Fold 1/3 of the whipped egg whites into 1 bowl of batter and pour into a prepared cake pan for the vanilla layer.
  • Fold 1/3 of the whipped egg whites and chocolate-flavored milk powder into another bowl of batter. Pour into another prepared cake pan for the chocolate layer.
  • Fold remaining 1/3 of the whipped egg whites, strawberry-flavored milk powder, and red food coloring into remaining bowl of batter. Pour into the remaining prepared cake pan for the strawberry layer.
  • Bake cake layers in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of each comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for about 15 minutes before flipping layers onto a wire rack to cool to room temperature, 20 to 30 minutes more.
  • Combine cream cheese, butter, and shortening in a bowl and cream together until smooth. Scrape down the bowl and add confectioners' sugar. Blend until frosting is smooth.
  • Assemble and frost the cooled cake layers and decorate as you please.

Time 1h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup strawberry-flavored milk powder (such as Nesquik®)
4 eggs, separated, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 drops red food coloring, or as desired
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 pinches salt, divided
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
2 cups cold heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla-flavored pudding mix
2 tablespoons whole milk, or more as needed
¾ cup chopped fresh strawberries
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup shortening
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round layer cake pans.
  • Cream sugar, butter, and strawberry powder together for cake until smooth and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add separated egg yolks 1 at a time, beating after each addition. Add vanilla extract and red food coloring. Beat until color is consistent.
  • Blend together flour, baking powder, and 1 pinch salt together in a separate bowl.
  • Add flour mixture to the creamed mixture in 3 batches, alternating with milk and blending after each addition. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Beat batter for 1 minute more.
  • Beat egg whites and remaining pinch of salt together in a separate bowl using a mixer with a whip attachment until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in whipped egg whites until smooth and consistent. Pour batter into the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the layers comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 15 to 30 minutes. Flip cakes out and invert onto the wire rack to cool to room temperature.
  • While the cake layers are cooling, combine cold heavy cream and confectioner's sugar in a clean mixing bowl. Whisk until cream begins to thicken and soft peaks form. Add pudding mix slowly while continuing to whisk; filling should be thick (almost dry) at this time. Add milk until mixture has a thick, smooth consistency. Fold in strawberries. Set filling aside.
  • Beat cream cheese, butter, and shortening together in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Scrape down the bowl and add confectioner's sugar. Blend until smooth. Set frosting aside.
  • Spread filling between the cooled cake layers. Frost the cake and decorate as desired.
