FRESH STRAWBERRY BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Make the cake: Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat oven to 325 degrees. Carefully butter and flour a 16-cup Bundt pan, making sure to get in all of the cracks and crevices.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the butter and sugar until combined. Add lemon zest, and then cream the mixture until light and fluffy on medium-high speed, about 5 minutes.
• With the mixer on low, add the eggs one at a time, making sure each egg is completely incorporated before adding the next. Add the yogurt, lemon juice and vanilla, and stir on medium speed to combine, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary to incorporate all the ingredients. The mixture may curdle a bit, but don't worry too much about it.
• Add the flour mixture all at once and mix on low until almost completely combined.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer, scrape and fold any excess flour into the batter, and scoop out roughly 1/2 cup/100 grams of batter. Drop tablespoons of batter into the bottom of the prepared pan, and smooth into the bottom of the pan. (This batter will prevent the strawberries from sinking to the bottom of the pan and sticking.) Add the chopped strawberries to the remaining batter in the bowl and gently fold in until the strawberries are evenly distributed. The batter will be thick.
• Spoon the batter evenly into the pan, smooth the top and tap the pan firmly on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles. Bake the cake until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean (a few small crumbs are O.K.), about 70 minutes. Cool the pan on a rack for 15 minutes, then turn the cake out onto the rack to cool completely.
• When the cake is cool, make the glaze: In a medium bowl, use a fork to mash the reserved 1/4 cup/40 grams of strawberries. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. The glaze should be thick but just pourable. If it seems thin, add a bit more confectioners' sugar; if it is too thick to stir, add a bit more lemon juice. Pour the glaze evenly over the cake (you can glaze it over a rack if you prefer to let the excess glaze drip off), let it set for a few minutes and serve. Once the glaze has dried completely, refrigerate any leftover cake, loosely draped with plastic wrap.

HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY BUNDT CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Place strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
• Cook for about 5-6 minutes, or until the mixture starts to boil. Reduce the heat slightly to medium-low heat and continue cooking for about 15-16 minutes, or until the strawberries have cooked down and the sauce has thickened up.
• Allow the sauce to cool to room temperature (as it cools, it will continue to thicken).
• *You will use only 1/3 cup of the sauce for the cake and about 1-2 Tbsp for the glaze (you may still have a couple Tbsp of sauce leftover).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cream butter until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add in sugar and lemon zest; cream the mixture until well combined.
• Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• In a separate bowl, sift together salt, baking powder, flour and cornstarch.
• Alternately add the dry ingredients (the flour mixture) and the milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with flour. Mix until just combined.
• Add in 1/3 cup of strawberry sauce, sour cream, vanilla extract and crushed freeze dried strawberries. Mix until just combined.
• If using red or pink gel food coloring, add in 2-3 drops and gently stir the coloring in until combined.
• Grease a bundt pan very well and pour the batter into the pan evenly.
• Bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean (mine took exactly 48 minutes).
• Allow the bundt cake to cool about 10 minutes, then remove the cake from the pan and allow it to finish cooling on a wire rack.
• Whisk 2 Tbsp of strawberry sauce with 1 cup powdered sugar and 3 tsp of lemon juice. If the glaze is too thin, add in more powdered sugar. If it is too thick, add in more strawberry sauce.
• Drizzle the glaze over the cake and allow it to set before serving. If desired, top with fresh strawberries.
• Enjoy!

STRAWBERRY-SWIRL BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F, with a rack in center. Brush a 10-to-15-cup Bundt pan with butter; dust with flour, tapping out excess. Whisk together egg whites, milk, and vanilla. Beat butter with 1 3/4 teaspoons salt, baking powder, and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Beat in flour in three additions, alternating with egg-white mixture, and beginning and ending with flour. (You should have about 7 cups batter.) Separate 2 cups batter and stir in freeze-dried strawberries.
• Transfer 1/4 cup strawberry batter to a small bowl; stir in pink gel paste until combined. Stir mixture back into remaining strawberry batter a little at a time, until you achieve desired color.
• Spoon 2 1/2 cups vanilla batter into bottom of pan. Top with all of strawberry batter, then remaining vanilla. Run a butter knife through batter four times to swirl, then use to fold and swoop in a couple of places to further marble.
• Place pan in oven; reduce temperature to 325°F. Bake until top of cake springs back when lightly touched, 1 hour to 1 hour and 5 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 15 minutes, then turn out onto rack and let cool completely.
• Stir together strawberries, remaining 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt; let stand until sugar dissolves, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, beat cream with confectioners' sugar on high speed to soft peaks. Dust cake with more confectioners' sugar and serve with whipped cream and macerated berries.

HIDDEN HEART STRAWBERRY BUNDT CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• On a cutting board, slice the ends off the pound cakes, then slice the cakes to the same thickness as the heart-shaped cookie cutter.
• Cut the centers out of the slices of pound cake with the cookie cutter. Set the hearts aside and discard the scraps or save for another use.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter, sugar, and salt with an electric hand mixer for 4 minutes, or until fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
• Add the vanilla and eggs, 1 at a time, beating to incorporate before adding the next. Scrape down the sides of the bowl again.
• Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold to incorporate a bit with a rubber spatula.
• Continue mixing with the electric hand mixer, streaming in the milk and beating until just incorporated. Add the strawberry puree and beat to combine.
• Grease a bundt pan with nonstick spray.
• Add 2 cups of cake batter to the bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Place the pound cake heart cut-outs around the pan, points up, submerging in the batter by about ½ inch (1 ¼ cm.) Add the rest of the batter, then gently tap the pan against the counter 2-3 times to release any air bubbles.
• Bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 30 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack set over a baking sheet.
• Make the vanilla simple syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, sugar, and vanilla. Cook until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture reaches a gentle boil. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Make the white chocolate ganache: In a medium bowl, pour the heavy cream over the white chocolate chips. Whisk until completely smooth.
• Using a skewer, poke holes all over the cake, then brush with the vanilla simple syrup.
• Pour the white chocolate ganache over the cake. Decorate with sprinkles.
• Slice the cake to reveal the hidden hearts, then serve.
• Enjoy!

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• To sour milk, stir 1 tablespoon lemon juice with a cup of milk and let stand a minute.
• Preheat to 350°F Butter a 12-cup Bundt pan and set aside.
• Prepare the strawberries and set aside. In a food processor, cream the sugar and flour with the cream cheese until smooth. Stir in the egg and vanilla. Set aside.
• Cream the butter with the sugar until light and fluffy. Fold in the vanilla, then blend in eggs, and process to blend batter well. Fold in the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder together and add to the mixture, alternating with the buttermilk to make a smooth batter.
• Spoon half of batter into prepared pan. Make sure the pan is big enough. I did this once and it ended up spilling out all over my oven. Spread reserved cream cheese filling all around top of batter (being careful not to touch edges). Sprinkle strawberries evenly over this. Top with remaining batter. Bake 60-75 minutes until cakes tests done. Let cool 15-20 minutes in pan before inverting onto a serving plate. Dust with confectioner's sugar or fondant.
• For the Soaking Syrup, heat the sugar and water to a gentle boil in a small saucepan. Simmer 3 minutes and then cool to room temperature. Using a pastry brush, soak cake thoroughly, at least twice with this syrup.
• For the Vanilla Glaze, whisk all ingredients in a small bowl adding hot water as required to make a pourable glaze. Drizzle over cake (that has syrup or not - up to you - the syrup makes the cake far more moist).
• More often than not I just heat up a can of vanilla icing in the microwave for several seconds and spoon that over. It's still delicious.
• This cake freezes well.
