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.

MINI STRAWBERRY BUNDT CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a regular bundt pan or a 6 mini bundt cake pan and set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the sugar and butter together on medium high speed for 2 minutes. Add in the eggs and continue beating. Next, add in the milk, sour cream, strawberry flavoring and vanilla extract.
• In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the flour mixture and jello into the wet mixture and stir just until combined. Drop in a few drops of food coloring and mix until all of the batter is colored.
• Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and place into the oven to bake. If you are baking in a regular bundt pan, bake for 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. If you are baking mini bundt cakes, bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with moist crumbs. Remove from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool.
• While the cake is cooling, make the glaze by whisking all of the ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Remove cake from bundt pan and place onto a plate or cake stand. Once cakes are cooled completely to room temperature, pour glaze over top and let set for 5 minutes before serving.
