This is an excellent cake for the holidays b/c it is so light and super easy to make. I didn't have all the strawberry comps i.e. . . . so i made smaller Tarts instead of a cake and also added a tbsp. of powdered sugar. My gms liked it so much she actually had enough for 10 more people. I didn't have a cake layer so i put the strawberry on a cake and cocoa buttercreamed it. Then i topped it with a simple vanilla frosting. After letting it sit in his fridge for 30 min, i got lucky and got a slice of cake! I knew right away that this was going to be moist and yummy so i took the slices out and added the remaining comps. My gms ate it all up and requested another slice later that day. My only negative comment is that there is not enough icing
We made this cake for a Christmas party, and it was a huge hit - a bit too big for our taste, but perfectly sweet and yummy. The red frosting was a bit too sweet, and the cake was kind of curdled when I tried to cool it too much. I'd recommend icing a medium-sized cake pan before adding the milk, then adding the confectioners sugar, then the milk, then the cake mix, then the confectioners bitters, then the rest of the frosting, for a total of 2 cups, for a total of 4 cups, when the cake is cool and the icing is still damp. Then, once the cake is cool, it can be mixed and used in place making the frosting - it's quite tasty, I'm sure. The only thing I did differently was to put the butter in the pan before I added the icing, so
