Delightful family heirloom strawberry shortcake recipe passed down for generations, served with a modern twist of fresh strawberries, whipped cream, and vanilla ice cream - a sure crowd pleaser!
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 4 eggs
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 quarts fresh strawberries, halved lengthwise
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 0.125 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) while you generously grease and flour a 9-inch tube pan.
  • Combine the butter and milk in a saucepan over low heat until the butter melts. In a bowl, whisk together eggs with salt and sugar. Add the warmed milk, butter, and vanilla. Mix the flour and baking soda, then gently fold into the batter until just combined. Pour into the baking pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 55 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Using a whisk attachment, blend cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and salt in a mixing bowl until smooth at medium speed. Slowly pour in heavy cream while whipping until fluffy and stiff peaks form. Ensure mixture doesn't become grainy. Occasionally scrape the bowl's bottom to remove any lumps.
  • Cut the chilled cake into three layers. Place strawberries on the bottom layer with the ends facing outwards, then fill the space with more berries. Spread whipped cream over the berries, then add the next cake layer and repeat. Finally, top with the last cake layer and cover with the remaining cream. Garnish with the rest of the berries.
