Ingredients

  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ White Cake Mix
  • 1 1/4 cups half-and-half
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup strawberry syrup
  • 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 3 cups fresh whole strawberries, sliced
  • 1/4 cup strawberry jam
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • Lime peel twists

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Spray bottom and sides of 13x9-inch pan with baking spray with flour.
  • 2
    In large bowl, beat cake mix, half-and-half, oil and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan.
  • 3
    Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 20 minutes. Poke cake every inch with tines of meat fork or a table knife. Pour syrup slowly over cake, allowing syrup to fill holes in cake. Cool completely, about 35 minutes longer.
  • 4
    Spread whipped topping over cake. In medium bowl, gently mix strawberries, jam and sugar. Top each serving with strawberry mixture; garnish with lime peel twist. Store covered cake and strawberry mixture separately in refrigerator.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Take your time pouring or spooning the syrup over the cake, letting it seep down into the holes.
  • tip 2
    We poked the cake with a meat fork because the tines are longer and larger, ensuring better saturation of the syrup in the cake.
