– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350F 175C. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this mixture aside for later.
3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract and strawberry puree until fully combined.
5. Gradually mix in the flour mixture and milk, alternating between the two, starting and finishing with the flour mixture. Stir until just combineddo not overmix!
6. Split the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely on wire racks.
7. For the frosting, beat the butter until its smooth. Slowly incorporate the powdered sugar, strawberry puree, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until the mixture is fluffy and creamy.
8. To make the strawberry sauce, combine the chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries break down and the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
9. Once the cakes have cooled, frost and stack them using the strawberry frosting in between the layers and on the outside. Drizzle with the cooled strawberry sauce and garnish with fresh strawberries and whipped cream for a delightful finish!
