Instructions

Step 1

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

3. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.

Step 4

4. Combine the Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sour cream or buttermilk. Mix until just combined.

Step 5

5. Swirl in the Strawberries: Reserve ¼ cup of the batter and mix it with the strawberry puree. Gently swirl this mixture into the rest of the batter to create a marbled effect.

Step 6

6. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Step 7

7. Prepare the Glaze: While the cake cools, whisk together powdered sugar, strawberry puree, and milk until smooth. Adjust consistency by adding more milk if needed.

Step 8

8. Glaze the Cake: Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, letting it drip down the sides.

Step 9

9. Serve and Enjoy: Slice and serve at room temperature for the best flavor and texture.
