Steps:
- Line bottom and sides of 5-quart round slow cooker with 1 piece of cooking parchment paper; trim edges if needed. Spray with cooking spray.
- In large bowl, beat cake mix, 1 1/4 cups milk, 1/3 cup melted butter and eggs with electric mixer on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Remove 2 1/2 cups batter to medium bowl; set aside. To remaining batter, beat in 1/4 cup cocoa until well blended.
- Place 1/2 cup of the white cake batter into center of slow cooker. Do not spread batter. Place 1/2 cup of the chocolate batter on top and in center of white batter in slow cooker. Do not spread batter. Let batter spread on its own. Repeat placing remaining batters, 1/2 cup at a time, in center, alternating between white and chocolate batter. Batter will look like a bull's-eye design when finished.
- Place folded, clean dish towel under cover of cooker. This will prevent condensation from dripping down onto cake. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 1 hour. Carefully remove slow cooker's ceramic insert, leaving cover on, and rotate insert 180 degrees. Continue to cook on Low heat setting 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Uncover, and transfer ceramic insert from slow cooker to cooling rack. Let stand 10 minutes.
- Using parchment paper, carefully lift cake out of ceramic insert, and transfer to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Carefully remove parchment paper.
- In large bowl, beat 1 1/4 cups softened butter and 1/3 cup cocoa with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in 3 tablespoons milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla. On low speed, beat in 2 1/4 cups powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. If frosting is too stiff to spread, add additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time. Spread frosting on side and top of cake.
- When ready to serve, in small bowl, beat 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla with spoon until well blended. If frosting is too stiff to pour, add additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time. Pour and spread over top of cake, allowing some to drip down sides. Store covered in refrigerator.

Steps:
- Beat cream in a large glass or metal mixing bowl with an electric mixer. Gradually add confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until the cream holds stiff peaks. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream should form a sharp peak that holds its shape.
- Spread a generous teaspoon of whipped cream on each cookie. Press cookies together to make 3-inch stacks.
- Spread a 1-inch wide line of whipped cream down center of a serving platter. Assemble cookie stacks into a log on platter following the line of whipped cream.
- Frost cookie log with remaining whipped cream and sprinkle with grated chocolate.
- Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight.
- To serve, slice diagonally to create striped pieces.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease bottoms and sides of 3 (8- or 9-inch) round pans with shortening. Line pan bottoms with waxed paper or cooking parchment paper; grease again and lightly flour. Make dark chocolate cake mix as directed on box using water, oil and eggs; set aside. Make white cake mix as directed on box using water, oil and egg whites.
- Place 1/4 cup of the chocolate cake batter into center of each pan. Do not spread batter. Place 1/4 cup white cake batter on top and in center of chocolate batter in each pan. Do not spread batter. Let batter in each pan spread on its own. Repeat placing remaining batters, 1/4 cup at a time, in center alternating between chocolate and white batter.
- Bake 45 to 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Carefully remove waxed paper. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

Top with another cake layer, top side down; spread with frosting. Top with remaining cake layer, top side down. Reserve about 1/2 cup remaining frosting for garnish. Frost side and top of cake with remaining frosting. Use metal spatula to smooth frosting. Using #9 writing tip, pipe reserved 1/2 cup frosting around bottom of cake.

Steps:
- In a bowl sift the flour cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl, add the butter, milk, and vanilla. Whisk until well-combined. Cover with a kitchen towel and set aside.
- In two large bowls, separate 3 eggs into yolks and whites. Crack the last 2 whole eggs in the bowl with the egg yolks.
- Pour 6 tablespoons of sugar into the egg yolk bowl. Mix on high until the batter is thick and pale yellow, about 5 minutes.
- Beat the egg whites on high until frothy, then gradually add the 6 tablespoons of sugar. Continue beating until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold in the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites.
- Add the flour mixture, continue folding until the flour is mixed in. Create a well in the bowl, pour in the butter mixture. Fold all of the ingredients until the batter is smooth and silky.
- Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
- Pour half of the batter into a smaller bowl. Sift the cocoa powder over the batter. Fold in until the cocoa powder is fully incorporated.
- In a greased parchment paper-lined 8-inch (20 cm) cake pan, spoon in a scoop of the vanilla batter in the center of the pan.
- Spoon in a scoop of the chocolate batter over the vanilla in the center.
- Repeat until you have poured about 6 to 8 layers, keeping in mind you will be spooning in a little less batter each layer.
- Using a chopstick or skewer, gently draw a line from the edge of the pan to the center. Repeat until you have made 8 lines. Pour a little chocolate dot in the center.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Use a knife or spatula to gently release the cake from the edge of the pan. Cover the cake with a greased plate. Flip the cake on to the plate then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Let cool for about 20 minutes before slicing.
- For the strawberry sauce, heat a saucepan over medium heat. Add the strawberries and sugar, and stir until bubbling. Remove from heat.
- Serve with strawberry sauce and whipped cream!
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a slow cooker liner: This will make cleanup a breeze. Just lift the liner out of the slow cooker and toss it away.
- Grease and flour the slow cooker insert: This will help the cake to come out of the slow cooker easily.
- Use a toothpick to test the cake for doneness: Insert the toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly.
- Be creative with your frosting: You can use any type of frosting you like. Try a chocolate ganache, a cream cheese frosting, or a whipped cream frosting.
