Method
Cake Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cake.
Prepare the Cake Batter
In a large mixing bowl, cream together 0.5 cups of unsalted butter and 1.5 cups of granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 tsp of vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tsp of baking powder, and 0.5 tsp of salt.
Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch round cake pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the Cake
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frosting Preparation
Make the Frosting
In a mixing bowl, beat 1 cup of unsalted butter until creamy. Gradually add 4 cups of powdered sugar, mixing well after each addition. Add in 2 tbs of heavy cream and 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and beat until light and fluffy.
Decoration
Decorate the Cake
Once the cake has cooled completely, spread the frosting evenly over the top and sides of the cake. Garnish with fresh strawberries and mint leaves for a beautiful presentation.
