Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Spray a 13x9-inch baking pan with baking spray with flour.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour and sugar; make a well in center of mixture.
In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk, preserves, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla. Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture, whisking to combine. Stir in strawberries. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, about 27 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Spread Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting onto cake. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Garnish with strawberries, if desired.
Strawberry Frosting Instructions
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese and butter at medium speed until creamy, stopping to scrape sides of bowl. Add strawberries, and beat until combined. Reduce mixer speed to low. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, beating until smooth. Use immediately.
