I made this cake to serve to Frank's students a couple of weeks ago.  One of them said to me, "this is so good, you can always tell when a cake is made from scratch rather than a box".  I didn't bother to correct her, I just thanked her a smiled to myself.

The secret to that homemade taste is the fresh strawberry puree that is poured into the cake once it is baked.   This then goes into the refrigerator for at least 2 hrs. before turning it out of the pan onto a cake plate and drizzling with a cream cheese glaze.  I sprinkled some fresh strawberries on top before serving.

That puree adds so much moisture and flavor to this cake, making it just like the strawberry shortcake you know and love but in Bundt form.

I loved the fact that this cake could be made the day before and refrigerated until I was ready to serve it.  The glaze takes only moments to put together.  Pour it on, garnish as desired and it's ready to be admired.

Strawberry Shortcake Bundt

Oh my....this wonderful bundt cake may start off with a boxed mix but then it is transformed into an amazing delight when saturated with fresh strawberry puree and drizzled with cream cheese glaze.

Prep time: 4 hourCook time: 45 MTotal time: 4 H & 45 M

Ingredients:

Cake

• 1 box yellow cake mix
• 1 c. milk
• 4 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
• 3 eggs

Strawberry Puree

• 1 1/2 c. slice strawberries
• 1/4 c. sugar
• 2 t. lemon juice

Glaze and Garnish

• 3/4 c. powdered sugar
• 2 T. butter, room temperature
• 1 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
• 2-3 T. milk
• 1/4 t. vanilla
• 8-10 strawberries, quartered

Instructions:

1. In large bowl of stand mixer beat the cake mix, milk, cream cheese and eggs with the paddle attachment on low for 1 minute.  Increase speed to medium and beat 2 minutes longer.  Pour into a bundt pan that has been treated with baking spray.    Bake in a preheated 325* oven for 40-45 minutes, until a skewer inserted removes cleanly.  Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
2. While cake is cooling, place the 1 1/2 c. strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.  Using a wooden spoon poke holes in the cake while it is still in the pan.  Pour the puree into the holes poked in the cake.  Cool in the pan for another 45 minutes, and then place the pan into the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.  Turn the cake out onto a cake plate or serving platter. 
3. In small bowl of stand mixer, fitted with whisk attachment, mix the powdered sugar, butter, 1 oz cream cheese, milk and vanilla until smooth.  Add additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time until glaze is at desired consistency.  Pour over the cake.  Sprinkle with the quartered strawberries and serve.
