Ingredients

  • 1 pkg. 2-layer-size white cake mix
  • Champagne or Sparkling Wine
  • 1 16 oz. can vanilla frosting
  • Few drops red food coloring
  • Sliced or whole fresh strawberrie

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and lightly flour two 8x1½ inch round cake pans; set aside. 2. Prepare cake mix according to package directions, except replace the water with an equal amount of champagne. Pour batter into prepared pans, spreading evenly. Bake according to package directions. Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely on racks.
3. Tint frosting with food coloring to make a light pink. Place one cake layer, bottom side up, on a serving plate, Spread with about ½ c. of the tinted frosting. Place remaining cake layer, rounded side up, on top. Frost top and side of cake with remaining frosting. Garnish with strawberries. Makes 10 servings. (I made this in a 9x13x2 pan. I also added a stick of butter to the frosting.)
