STRAWBERRY PECAN CAKE

A wonderful triple layer cake. It was my first 3 layer and I love it! If I remember right, I believe I had to buy 32 oz. of the frozen strawberries with juice. By time I mashed the juice out of a 16 oz. container, there wasn't many strawberries so back to the store I went.

Time 35m

Yield 12-16 slices

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 white cake mix
1 (3 ounce) package strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert
1 cup vegetable oil
4 large eggs
1 cup angel flake coconut
1/2 cup milk
1 cup frozen strawberries in syrup (mash thawed strawberries but reserve a cup of the syrup and discard the rest.)
1 cup pecans, chopped
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (room temp)
2 teaspoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Cake Directions:.
  • Mix dry cake mix with dry strawberry flavored jello. Add oil, eggs, coconut, and milk; and beat until well blended. Stir in mashed strawberries and pecans. Bake in 3 generously greased and floured 9-inch round layer pans at 350° for 25-35 minutes, or until cake tests done.
  • Brush cooled layers with reserved juice (1-2 tablespoons per layer) and let set for about 15 minutes to allow cake to absorb syrup. I use a Cream Cheese Frosting for this cake (one of my favorite frostings).
  • Frosting Directions:.
  • In a large bowl, cream 1/4 cup of butter with cream cheese. Add milk and powdered sugar, mixing first by hand until sugar is blended. Then add vanilla and mix with electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Chill for about 10-15 minute before frosting cake. If needed, chill again if frosting becomes room temperature while frosting to stiffen it again.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 box white cake mix (i use duncan hines)
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk (i use evaporated)
1 cup coconut
1 box strawberry jello
1 cup frozen strawberries
1/2 cup crisco oil
1 cup chopped pecans
TOPPING AND FILLING:
1 stick butter
1/2 cup drained strawberries (save juice)
1/2 cup pecans
1 box confectioners sugar
1/2 cup coconut

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all cake ingredients. Bake in 3 layers at 350 for 20-30 minutes. Oven temps vary.
  • 2. Topping and Filling: Cream sugar and butter, adding other ingredients. Add juice from strawberries if needed. I used all of mine. I don't like it real thick because its too hard to spread on cake. Spread on cake and enjoy.

Tips:

  • Prep Everything: Before you start baking, make sure all your ingredients are measured, prepped, and ready to go. This will save you time and help ensure that your cake turns out perfectly.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your cake will taste. If possible, use fresh strawberries and pecans for the best flavor.
  • Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter can make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Cake: Bake the cake at the temperature and for the time specified in the recipe. Overbaking or underbaking can ruin the texture and flavor of the cake.
  • Cool the Cake Completely: Before you frost the cake, let it cool completely. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • Decorate the Cake: Once the cake is cool, you can decorate it with the frosting and other toppings of your choice. Get creative and have fun!

The strawberry pecan cake is a delicious and flavorful cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, this cake is sure to impress your friends and family. So go ahead and give it a try!
