Ingredients 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup strawberry jam
  • 0.5 cup chocolate syrup
  • 0.5 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  3. In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
  4. Divide batter into three portions. Stir strawberry jam into one portion, chocolate syrup into another, and nuts into the third.
  5. Pour each batter into a separate prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
  6. Stack the layers with strawberry on the bottom, chocolate in the middle, and nut layer on top. Frost as desired.
