Strawberry Sheet Cake

Strawberry Sheet Cake

How cute is a pink cake?

I made this recipe for a family gathering and it was such a hit!

Every single person wanted some, the kids because it was pink and the adults because it was made from real strawberries.

Tip: To make the sweetened strawberries, just grab a large pinch of sugar and pour it on top of the strawberries.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups self-rising flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup canola oil
• 1 cup milk
• ¼ cup sweetened strawberries, mashed 
• (sprinkle a large pinch of sugar on strawberries)
• 1 small box dry strawberry jello
• 
  

Strawberry Icing:

• ½ stick butter or margarine, softened
• 3-4 cups powdered sugar
• ¼ cup sweetened strawberries, mashed

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients and pour into greased 9x13 pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

                                While the cake is baking, make the icing.
                Mix together all icing ingredients until smooth – may need to add more powdered                  sugar or strawberries for a spreading consistency. Mix well first before you add                                               extra sugar or strawberries.

                                      Once the cake is cool, spread the icing on the cake.
                         Store the cake in refrigerator; it's best when it's chilled for at least 2 hours.
