Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 ounces (113 grams) white chocolate, melted
- 1/2 cup whole milk
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
Flavor Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup strawberry puree
Instructions
- Prepare the oven at 350F (175C) and prepare the cake pan by greasing and dusting with flour to prevent sticking.
- Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl, whisking flour, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly blended.
- Cream butter and sugar in a separate bowl until the mixture becomes light and airy, creating a smooth texture.
- Incorporate eggs individually into the butter mixture, ensuring each is fully integrated before adding the next, then fold in vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.
- Gently blend melted white chocolate into the batter, creating a rich, creamy consistency.
- Gradually fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with milk to maintain a smooth, even texture without overmixing.
- Transfer half the batter into the prepared cake pan, creating an even base layer.
- Delicately swirl strawberry puree throughout the initial batter layer, creating a marbled effect.
- Carefully top with remaining batter, ensuring an even distribution and complete coverage of the strawberry swirls.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, checking doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center – it should come out clean when the cake is fully baked.
- Remove from oven and allow cake to cool completely before serving to ensure optimal texture and flavor.
Notes
- Carefully measure ingredients to ensure the perfect balance of flavors and texture in your white chocolate strawberry cake.
- Use room temperature eggs and butter for smoother mixing and better cake consistency.
- Swirl strawberry puree gently to create beautiful marbled patterns without overmixing the batter.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend to maintain the cake’s delicate structure.
