Number Of Ingredients 17

CAKE
1 box(es) white cake mix
1/2 cup(s) oil
4 - eggs
1/2 cup(s) pureed strawberries (i used strawberries that i had added sugar and froze when they were in season and drained the juice to use later)
2 teaspoon(s) strawberry extract
1/2 cup(s) strawberry juice (actually i used just under 1/2 cup)
TOPPING
2 small package(s) strawberry jello

1 cup(s) powdered sugar
1 stick(s) softened unsalted butter
1 teaspoon(s) strawberry extract

1 package(s) unsweetened strawberry koolaid

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and lightly flour 2-9 in. cake pans. Mix the cake mix, oil, eggs, measure the 2 tea of extract into measuring cup and add enough strawberry juice to equal 1/2 cup for at least 2 minutes until well blended. Bake at 350 for 26 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. While still warm. Poke holes in cake. Mix jello and boiling water until dissolved, Add strawberry soda and gently pour 1/2 over each cake in pans (1 cup per cake layer) let absorb and cool completely then remove from pans (handle carefully as cake will be very moist) When the cake has cooled mix the vanilla frosting,dry koolaid, stick of butter, extract, and powdered sugar until well blended. then frost as you would any layered cake.
