Made from a cake mix, this unique and delicious cake recipe is easy enough for anyone with a 9×13 pan to make!
A few special ingredients really jazz up the overall flavor and make this cake so moist and irresistible, sour cream, white chocolate chips, and white chocolate pudding.
Easy Strawberry Cake
I’ve made this cake twice in the last week and our guests and our family couldn’t stop eating it. I’m obsessed with how amazing these flavors all blend together in such an easy cake mix recipe!
When we want something special, but a little unique for birthdays we make this cake Glazed Rum Bundt Cake or Banana Lollipops.
The strawberry flavor and whipped topping make a light dessert and the white chocolate chips and pudding add the perfect sweetness.
We love adding strawberries and hot fudge on individual pieces to customize the flavors even more!
Tips for Making Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cake
If spreading whipped topping over cake cool completely to prevent whipped topping from melting
If serving warm (which is delicious) served whipped topping and strawberries on the side and drizzle with hot fudge
Store in the refrigerator, but plan to use quickly
Keep the mixing process moving so the cake doesn’t have an extended period of time to set up like pudding prior to baking
Different brands of cake mix take different amounts of time to bake, so check early and often to avoid burning
Keep the cake moist by covering the cake with plastic wrap shortly after it’s been removed from the oven – this will help keep moisture in the keep as it cools.
