This is one of the first recipes I ever came up with on my own. After it was published in my column in Ami Magazine, it was also my first recipe to ever “go viral.” It was an instant favorite with my family — and my readers. Nobody can get enough of the somewhat unusual strawberry flavor — or the light, fluffy texture. This was way back in the beginning of my food writing career, but even then, I thought … maybe I’ll write a cookbook some day and include this cake recipe in it.
