Cream Cheese Pound Cake With Strawberries And Cream Food

FRESH STRAWBERRY CREAM CHEESE COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.

• Stir in milk, eggs and vanilla.
• Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to cheese mixture and mix until smooth.
• Spread half the batter in a greased and floured 13x9 inch baking pan. (The batter is VERY thick. It works best to put little blobs of it across the whole pan and then spread them with a knife. One reviewer says they used a 8x8 inch pan, but I haven't so I can't vouch for how it will turn out or how long you need to bake it.).
• Spread berries evenly over batter. Dot remaining batter over berries. Mix brown sugar and nuts; sprinkle evenly over cake.

IRRESISTIBLE CREAM CHEESE POUND CAKE WITH FRESH STRAWBERRY TOPPING

Steps:

• MAKE CREAM CHEESE POUND CAKE: Move oven rack to middle position and preheat to 300 degrees F. Spray 12-cup nonstick Bundt pan with baking spray, and set aside.
• In medium bowl whisk together flour and salt; set aside. In large measuring cup whisk together eggs, egg yolks, milk, and vanilla, and set aside.
• In bowl of stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat together butter, cream cheese, and sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Reduce speed to lowest setting, and slowly pour in egg mixture until combined. Add flour mixture and pulse mixer until combined, scrapping bowl sides of bowl as needed. Remove bowl from mixer stand and give it a few mixes to make sure no flour pockets remain.
• Next, pour batter into prepared Bundt pan, and smooth with rubber spatula to even out batter and smooth the top. Gently tap pan on counter 7 times to release air bubbles. Finally, bake 80-90 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Once cake is done, move it to wire rack to cool for 15 minutes, and then turn cake out to wire rack to cool completely, about 2 hours.
• MAKE STRAWBERRY TOPPING: While cake cools, make strawberry topping by removing strawberry stems, and cut large strawberries length-wise into quarters, and medium to small strawberries in half length-wise.
• Stir together berries, sugar, and vanilla in medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often. The berries will begin to release juice as they cook; smash a few berries with a wooden spoon to release more juice. Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens, about 15-20 minutes.
• Turn off heat, and transfer strawberry topping to serving bowl to cool to room temperature. Once at room temperature, cover and chill until ready to use.
• SERVE: Dust pound cake with powdered sugar, and then slice and serve with fresh strawberry topping and whipped cream (optional).

STRAWBERRY CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• For the puree: Pulse the strawberries in a food processor, scraping as needed, until a smooth puree forms. Add the strawberry puree to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the puree reduces by half (to about 1 cup). Transfer the puree to a bowl and set aside to cool.
• For the cake: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat two 9-inch round cake pans with nonstick baking spray. Line the bottoms with parchment rounds; lightly coat parchment with nonstick spray.
• Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large bowl until combined. Beat the butter, granulated sugar, oil and vanilla in another bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the whole eggs and yolks one at a time, beating to blend between additions and occasionally scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl, until the batter is completely combined, smooth and creamy. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Fold in 1/2 cup of the cooled strawberry puree. Reserve the rest of the puree for the frosting.
• Scrape the batter evenly into the prepared pans. Smooth the tops. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through, until the cakes are a light golden brown and a tester inserted into the centers comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer the pans to a wire rack and let the cakes cool for 30 minutes. Run a knife around the sides of the cakes and invert onto the wire rack. Remove the parchment and let the cakes cool completely.
• For the frosting: Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy. Gradually beat in the butter, beating until smooth. Sift the confectioners' sugar into the bowl and beat until smooth. Add the vanilla and beat until light and fluffy. Remove 3 cups of the frosting to a medium bowl and set aside. Fold the reserved strawberry puree into the remaining frosting. Refrigerate both until slightly chilled and firm, about 20 minutes.
• To assemble the cake: Place one cake domed-side down on a platter. Spread 1 1/2 cups of the strawberry frosting evenly over the top. Place the remaining cake domed-side up on top. Spread the top and sides of the cake with 1 1/2 cups of the white frosting. Smooth out completely to make an even crumb coat. (It's okay if some of the cake shows through. This is just a base layer.) Refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the frosting set.
• Spread the remaining white frosting on the top of the cake and the upper half of the sides. There should be a band all around the bottom of the cake with the crumb coat exposed. Fill in the exposed area with 1 cup of the strawberry frosting. Use a large offset spatula to smooth the top and sides of the cake. The strawberry and white frostings should blend together during smoothing to create an ombre effect. Transfer the remaining strawberry frosting to a piping bag or resealable plastic bag fitted with a medium star tip. Pipe 8 rosettes evenly spaced along the top border of the cake.
