Crispy strawberry cake

Crispy strawberry cake
Last year, I had someone make a long flowerpot out of wooden boards and painted it with white paint. Said to be a flowerpot, it actually looks like a manger for feeding horses, but it's just a mini version. Strawberries were planted, but only a few fruits were produced. We continued planting this year, and we had more fruits and a small harvest. The fruit is small, but it is brightly red, pure red, and so cute that people are unwilling to eat it. They were left like treasures for several days until some water lost and the color darkened, and then they made up their mind to turn them into delicious food.

Crispy strawberry cake-a very good afternoon tea. It is crisp and sweet, with a strong fruity flavor, so it is worth a try.

  • Crispy strawberry cake Make Tips

    1. The amount of cake paste can be put into three rectangular molds with a length of 15cm x width of 6cm x height of 3cm. 2. It is best to use a deeper mold, and the baked cake can be cut into pieces. The mold I used was too shallow and the cake was too crunchy to cut. 3. Feeling a little greasy, you can try to reduce the amount of butter a little bit.
