Yield 10-12 People

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for the pie plate
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pound strawberries, hulled and halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 10-inch pie plate. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together into a medium bowl.
  • Put the butter and 1 cup sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to medium-low; mix in the egg, milk, and vanilla.
  • Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in the flour mixture. Transfer the batter to the buttered pie plate. Arrange the strawberries on top of the batter, cut sides down and as close together as possible. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar over the strawberries.
  • Bake the cake 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F. Bake until the cake is golden brown and firm to the touch, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pie plate on a wire rack. Cut into wedges. The cake can be stored at room temperature, loosely covered, for up to 2 days.

I've made this cake several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The cake is moist and fluffy, and the strawberries add a delicious sweetness. The glaze is the perfect finishing touch. I highly recommend this recipe!

This cake was a bit of a disappointment. The cake was dry and crumbly, and the strawberries were bland. The glaze was also too thick and didn't add much flavor. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of strawberries, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The cake was delicious, and the strawberries added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had used less sugar in the glaze.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The strawberries were fresh and juicy, and the cake was moist and fluffy. I think I would have enjoyed it more if the glaze had been less sweet.
