Ingredients

For the cake base:
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups of all-purpose flour
• 1 cup of sugar
• 1 tsp. of baking powder
• 1/2 cup of butter, melted
• 1/2 cup of milk
• 2 tsp. of vanilla extract

For the strawberry topping:
• 2 cups of sliced strawberries
• 1/4 cup of sugar
• 1/4 cup of water

For the cream cheese frosting:
• 1 cup of cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup of butter, softened
• 2 1/2 cups of powdered sugar
• 1 tsp. of vanilla extract

Instructions

Making the Cake Base

Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Stir in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before adding the topping.

Making the Strawberry Topping

In a small saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a low boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook for 10 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened and the strawberries are soft. Let cool completely before adding to the cake.

Making the Cream Cheese Frosting

In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth. Spread the frosting over the cooled cake.

Assembling the Cake

Spread the cooled strawberry topping over the frosted cake. Cut into bars and serve. Enjoy!
