Backpocket strawberry shortcat
Saw completely through the cake's centre and separate the layers. Continue to saw almost to the centre, then give it another quarter turn and saw again until you reach your original point of entry. Just before you reach the middle of the cake, give it a quarter turn. I love using the food processor when whipping heavy cream, but obviously, you can use whatever method you like.
* Chef's note: Cutting a cake into layers is easy as saw-spin-separate: Begin to saw the cake in half horizontally. Whip the heavy cream with vanilla and a sweetener and slice the strawberries. Remove from the heat and add to a blender or food processor. The sugar should be dissolved and a strawberry syrup should form. Let it come up to a boil and boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Spread the remaining whipped cream on the top of the cake and top the cake with the whole berries. Add 4 cups of the sliced strawberries and granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium/high heat. Top with the other piece of cake, cut side down.
Fold a couple tablespoons of the whipped cream into the sliced berries and spread over the bottom layer. Drizzle the juices from the sliced berries over the cut sides of both halves. Place the bottom layer cut side up on a cake stand or serving plate. Refrigerate until ready to use.ġ) Cut the cake in half horizontally with a serrated knife. Whip the cream with the icing sugar and vanilla to soft peaks. Hull and thinly slice the rest of the berries and toss with the caster sugar. Cool on a rack for 10 mins, then turn it out of the pan, flip upright, and cool completely on the rack.ġ) Set aside 350g of the best-looking whole berries for topping the cake. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean, about 25 mins. Lightly whisk in the butter, egg, milk, and vanilla, just until smooth.
