Strawberry Cake

This has been a family favorite for as long as I can remember.  It was my Dad's favorite (just about anything "strawberry" was his favorite).


Strawberry Cake

1 box of white cake mix         

1 box of strawberry Jell-O     

3/4 C. oil
1/3 C. water
4 eggs, added one at a time 
1/2 C. frozen, sweetened strawberries

Mix in the order given.  Bake at 350 degrees until done.




Strawberry Icing

1 box of powdered sugar
1 stick of butter, melted
1/2 box of frozen, sweetened strawberries

Beat until smooth.  Ice cooled cake.


My Mom and I were talking about this cake, a couple of weeks ago.  I have given the recipe to friends, who have in turn, made it one of their family favorites.  Today, on my Mom's birthday (and what would have been my Dad's birthday), I am posting this recipe, knowing that he would have loved celebrating with this cake!  
Make it one of your family favorites, too!

I finally found your site! You joined mine but I could not find a way to link back to your site and this morning as I was leaving a comment at A Baby Changes Everything I saw your smiling face and here I am!

Your site is lovely and I look forward to stopping by often. Oh, I'm certainly gonna add your strawberry cake to my recipe file!
